FX recently aired a new television series titled “American Sports Story: Aaron Hernandez. ” The series follows the prominent events in Hernadez’s college career, NFL career, and arrest. Since it’s a true story, the show must portray many real people, including Rob Gronkowski.
The show has gotten some slack for portraying people like Bill Belichick, Robert Kraft, and even Hernandez. However, that hasn’t been the case for the actor portraying Gronkowski.
Of course, it’s hard to get someone who looks similar to him, but many praise the actor for mirroring his personality and voice after a show clip went viral.
“Bro did a 1-1 recreation of Gronk, nothing dirty about this,” said one comment.
“Doesn’t look like him but definitely has the voice and laugh accurate lmao,” said another.
“He was my high school when he lived in NY, was in my gym class. This is exactly what he was like, fame and football didn’t magically make his personality change,” added a third.

“Casting look wise wasnt the best but he nailed the personality,” continued a fourth.
Gronkowski is unique, so it’s impressive that someone could replicate some of the things about him so well.
Rob Gronkowski Called For The Browns To Play Jameis Winston
The Cleveland Browns seem to be in a tough spot regarding Deshaun Watson. You have a quarterback you gave a ton of money to, and you don’t want to give up on him despite how bad he’s playing.
However, Gronkowski thinks the Browns finally need to think about playing someone else.
“They gotta start looking at Jameis Winston,” Gronk said. “And the possibility of putting him into the game.”
Of course, Gronk only played with Tom Brady his entire career, so he’s never experienced a QB room like this before, but he certainly has a point.
