Rob Gronkowski Is Giving Financial Advice to Younger NFL Players The New England Patriots star tight end is adding financial guru to his resume. In a new interview, Gronkowski says he has become a financial role model for younger NFL players.

role models. The NFL star also credits his dad for instilling his fiscal responsibility. Gronkowski goes on to say he will make a few big purchases at some point with the money he's saved.
