Getty ImagesIn the most tangible sign yet that Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski will play on Sunday, the team announced today that he did participate in practice.
On today’s injury report, the Patriots listed Gronkowski as a limited participant. Yesterday he was the only player on the team who didn’t practice at all.
The status of Gronkowski, who suffered an ankle injury in the AFC Championship Game, has been the subject of a great deal of media scrutiny over the last week and a half. But all indications are that he will be able to play on Sunday. If he’s on the field at all today, it’s just about impossible to imagine that he wouldn’t be on the field for the Super Bowl.

Ankle? I don’t need no stinkin ankle! Gronk is a beast!
Nothing can keep the GRONK of the field! GRONK MODE!
Sure
unless he, uh, like re-aggravates it.
Go Giants………… AGAIN!
It just goes to show… the Baltimore Ravens will NEVER go to the Super Bowl with Joe Flacco at QB.
Gronk means win
i hope he plays
whatever happened to the other gronkowskis
Giants are TOAST!!!
Eli is due for PICKS!!!!
He’s definitely playing. For me I don’t care if that guy will play with a limp, he needs to be accounted for on every play he’s on the field. Patriots have several guys to watch out for no doubt, but Rob Gronkowski has to be watched.
Gronk catch ball. Gronk spike ball.
Championship.
If he plays the Giants can account for him with only one player. No need in doubling someone on a gimp ankle.
Real time action in game is very very different than practice. For him to make cut and push off that ankle is another matter all together….
We’ll know soon enough…
No one wants to talk about it but..
the Giants O.L…or lack thereof…is just screaming to be exploited.
its a high ankle sprain. he wont be close to 100%. no matter how anyone wants to spin it, this isnt a good thing for the pats. hernandez and welker will have to beat the giants.
Maybe the Pats can trademark 15-4 this year!
he will be humbled by the Giants defense.

By who? Carter is gone. Wilfork is good but rest are scrubs.
Hmm … Think there might be one or two Pats fans here? Anything pro NE gets huge ups, anything anti-NE gets huge downs.
@ SIAAA: Yes, the vaunted Giants secondary is something to behold. C’mon, their front 4 is great, and you can’t take that away from them in the slightest, but to say their secondary could humble even a 75% Gronk is overstating the facts.
@ BigBlueNationDB: Absolutely, because there’s no possible way he’ll catch balls because of his ankle.
rest are scrubs.
huh ? whats not to love about love ?
Bobhk sounds scared…what are you worried about, don’t you know the giants already think they’ve won and Sunday is merely a formality?
DA GRONK!!!!!
If he’s not 100% keep him in to block. Hernandez gets open quicker underneath. Gronk can also block and the Pats have got a bunch of pretty good runners who will be available and there’s Welker, there’s Branch, and I would be tickled to see Senor Ochocinco get open a time or two.
Should be a good game
