Rob Gronkowski is going to be a very happy man.
On Sunday afternoon, Gronkowski was on the receiving end of a 53-yard touchdown pass from Tom Brady to hit a career milestone he will treasure forever; career receiving touchdown No. 69.
Gronk was wide open in the New Orleans Saints secondary before running down the sideline and through the final would-be tackler to find the endzone.
Check out Gronk’s 69th career touchdown and the spike that followed.
GET. OFF. HIM.

Giggity. That’ll do.
And for those who don’t think Rob Gronkowski was fully aware of how close he was to touchdown 69, remember this blast from the past.
