Agent Drew Rosenhaus, whose client list includes Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski, visited the set of NBC SportsTalk on Thursday. Surprisingly, the topic of Gronk’s ankle came up.

Implicit in this is the notion that Gronkowski will be playing, since it’s in the Super Bowl.
The real question is whether and to what extent he’ll be effective.
