Rob Gronkowski crowns $76,400,000 star as best NFL TE right now

 

Rob Gronkowski, a legendary figure in the NFL, recently weighed in on the ongoing debate over which tight end (TE) sits atop the NFL hierarchy. In a recent interview, Gronkowski named George Kittle of the San Francisco 49ers as the clear pick for the best at the position.

During an appearance on the YouTube show "Hot Ones Versus," Gronkowski was asked to rank Kittle, Dallas Goedert, Mark Andrews, and Dalton Kincaid. He did not hesitate to select George Kittle as his top choice.

Kittle, who signed a record-setting four-year contract extension worth $76.4 million earlier this year, had another stellar campaign despite injuries within the team. He surpassed 1,000 receiving yards and scored more than 10 touchdowns, which earned him Gronkowski’s vote as the best TE.

 

"Alright, this is easy. I'm going to answer totally: George Kittle by far," Gronkowski said. "He was All-Pro last year. He had over 1,000 yards, he had over 10 touchdowns. He's the best in the game right now. So that’s an easy number one."

With a $76.4 million contract, Kittle not only proves his ability on the field but also has a significant impact on the team, helping the 49ers maintain strong performance. This not only benefits the team on the field but also boosts Kittle’s value in the market, ensuring he remains a top-tier player in the league.

Both Gronkowski and many within the NFL community agree that Kittle is the top TE right now. He is an all-around player with great physical attributes and technical skills. It comes as no surprise that he is receiving widespread recognition from peers and experts alike.
