Watch Rob Gronkowski rumble for a record-setting touchdown
Gronkowski got his 69th touchdown catch during his New York homecoming.
A week after tying the Patriots’ all-time touchdown reception record, Rob Gronkowski wasted little time establishing a new benchmark against the Bills on Sunday. His 69th career touchdown makes him the most prolific in franchise history.
On 2nd and 7, Tom Brady threw a perfectly placed pass to Gronkowski running down the middle of the field. Catching the ball in stride, the 27-year-old tight end from Amherst, New York ran away from the Bills’ coverage for a 53-yard touchdown:
