Belichick: Rob Gronkowski won't be limited for Patriots

Rob Gronkowski is good to go for training camp.

New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick said Thursday that Gronk has "no limits that I'm aware of," after his recovery from back surgery.

The pronouncement comes as no surprise as the tight end was full-go during workouts earlier this offseason. Gronkowski has insisted all offseason he'll be fine entering the season after going on injured reserve and missing the Patriots' Super Bowl run last year.

"When we put those pads on, I'm definitely ready to take some hits," Gronk told reporters Wednesday, per The Boston Globe.

The real question for 2017 Gronk is whether he can stay healthy for a full 16 games.
