Julian Edelman: Rob Gronkowski once brought 'easy button' to Patriots practice

2023-10-28
New England Patriots Jerseys legend Rob Gronkowski has always had a personality, which former Patriots and now FOX Sports teammate Julian Edelman jerseys can attest to. 
On Friday's edition of "The Herd," Edelman told a story that provides a new layer to Gronkowski's personality and elite play (hint: that was easy).
"We used to have goal line seven-on-seven every Friday, and no one NFL Jerseys could cover him [Gronkowski]," Edelman said. "We'd be on the goal line, and he'd be Mossing guys and jumping up over guys, and [Bill] Belichick would just sit there and twirl his whistle [and go] ‘what is going on?’ And one week he comes out, and I'm talking he would score like eight touchdowns in this period. You couldn't cover him, you throw it anywhere, the guy's not coverable. 
"You remember those easy buttons from Staples? He pulled out an Easy Button and just started pressing the easy button at practice after he scored. When you perform, Belichick doesn't say anything; he laughed. … he was a dominant practice player"
