The Patriots are once again Double-Gronked.

Via Doug Kyed of NESN.com, the Patriots have brought fullback Glenn Gronkowski back to their practice squad for another stint.

Running back Tyler Gaffney has joined him in returning to the Patriots, as they each have shown signs of becoming a Ross Ventrone-like passenger in the team’s revolving door of transactions.

They cut Gronkowski, the youngest brother of All-Pro tight end Rob Gronkowski last week, but appear to like his little brother enough to bring him back. He spent the offseason with the Bills, and appeared in one regular season game there.
