Rex Ryan, Buffalo Bills Get Their Own Gronk

The Patriots will win the AFC East this year. After seven consecutive division titles, this is accepted fact. But luckily, we’ll have a sibling rivalry to keep us entertained.

The Buffalo Bills have signed Glenn Gronkowski, younger brother of Patriots tight-end Rob Gronkowski, after the Kansas State fullback went undrafted in the 2016 NFL Draft. The Gronkowski family is from the suburban Buffalo area, where patriarch Gord owns a gym.

This means Bills head coach and longtime Pats rival Rex Ryan will have a Gronk of his own. Glenn marks the fourth Gronkowski to make the NFL. In addition to Rob, Chris and Dan also had stints in the pros. (We took a spin around Boston on the Gronk Bus with Dan back in October.)

Rob tweeted Saturday to congratulate his little brother.

Congrats lil bro @ggronko signing with our hometown Buffalo Bills. It's all about getting an opportunity and capitalizing. Go pats! 😉🏉

In case you were wondering, Glenn was absent from his big bro’s raucous, nautical adventure.
