Now someday maybe TEs will become so receiver-oriented that they won't be asked to block anymore, or maybe the league will install a reg that prohibits TEs from blocking or whatever. But for now, at least as i hear it discussed, blocking is still integral to what a TE does.

Gronk gets injured falling out of bed every morning. Same with Antonio Gates. Those guys were both great but too fragile.
Meanwhile, Kelce and Gonzalez had crazy durability.
