NFL Star Rob Gronkowski Considering Acting Career

Rob Gronkowski may be headed to Hollywood. The Patriots star is reportedly considering retiring and persuing a career in acting, according to the Eagle-Tribune. The outlet reports that Gronk is considering the possibility after Sylvester Stallone and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson told him that he could make millions doing acting films.

Gronkowski has reportedly told friends that injuries have been taking their toll, and said that he wasn’t sure if he would return for the next NFL season. He’s been in the NFL for eight years and has had several injuries, including a concussion in the AFC Championship game and previous injuries to his forearm, right ACL and MCL and back. He has also endured a thigh contusion, bruised lung and a strained hamstring over the past three seasons.

Gronkowski has considered ventures outside of the NFL before. He appeared at WrestleMania 33 and WWE has expressed interest in recruiting him.
