Former NFL tight end Rob Gronkowski believes LeBron James would've had a fruitful football career if the NBA legend decided to switch sports.

"LeBron would have been an absolute monster on the football field," Gronkowski said during an appearance on the Games With Names podcast. "I can kind of see him being the hybrid 'F' tight end."

The former New England Patriots and Tampa Bay Buccaneers star explained that he wouldn't expect James to handle all the blocking duties of a tight end, but the 6'8", 265-pound power forward would've been able to make a massive impact in the passing attack.
