What It Means:

Gronkowski has just 1 touchdown over his past eight games and hasn't surpassed 3 catches or 56 receiving yards in three straight games. Injuries appear to have finally caught up with the 29-year-old, but McDaniels still believe he's making a positive impact. "I think he’s in a good place, continues to work hard and he’s always patient and unselfish and he’s a great teammate. We’re better when he’s on the field." The Patriots play the Miami Dolphins in Week 14.
