Some sick Gronk stats.
His yards per catch (15.1) is higher than Jerry Rice (14.8) or Tyreek Hill (14.6).
Highest yards per target of any TE ever by nearly a full yard (9.9 vs. Kelce, second, at 9.04). His yards per target are higher than ANYONE since 1992, including all WRs (for comparison's sake, Julio Jones is second at 9.8).
Brady's passer rating when targeting Gronk: 129.6, which is the highest QB-to-receiver ranking since at least 2006.
If you're into PFF, Gronk has the top 6 PFF grades at TE ever recorded, and is in a three way tie for 7th.
Only player in NFL history with 500+ catches, 15+ yards per catch, who weighed over 250, much less the 265 he actually weighed. Guys his size just DO NOT have that kind of yards per catch number.
Guy was a beast. Sorry to see him go.
