Gronk Claims He Was Joking About Getting The Tampa Playbook Four Weeks Ago



Rob Gronkowski found himself in the news, after he recently announced that he received the Tampa Bay Buccaneers playbook four weeks ago. Now Gronk is claiming that he was joking about it.

Gronk obviously say it was making waves and went on social media to clarify his statement:

“This is seriously a story? Lol! I was just joking around with Sage as I was pretty much the whole time that night when I was co-hosting the show. Wowsers, my co-hosting skills on point!! LOL!! I actually just received my team-issued Surface today from the Bucs and it’s still in the package, and hoping it is all pictures and drawings. I’m pumped to open it one day hopefully soon and follow the arrows to learn where to run to. Gronk run Gronk catch ball. No playbook needed. Hehe.”

Perhaps Gronk was just being a goofball, but he is certainly aware the media would pick up on a sound bite like this. He has made it a point to use these kind of tactics to promote his products over the past year. Gronk has capitalized off of these type of innuendo’s as a marketing ploy, but this time may have inadvertently brought some bad attention on his new team.
