You have to accept the player,” Gronkowski said. “Everyone has their own ways to live their life, and as long as he’s respecting me, keeping distance, respecting myself, then I will respect him back. If he’s being a great teammate and he’s a guy on the field doing a great job, then you have nothing to complain about. He’s another teammate and another friend.

Simply put, no quarterback of recent vintage has had to rely on a wider variety of targets than he has. According to ESPN Stats and Information, since 2001, Brady has completed at least 250 passes in the regular season to four different pass catchers over the course of his 12-year career as a starting quarterback: Wes Welker (563), Deion Branch (328), Troy Brown (323) and Kevin Faulk (310).

It Is What It Is » Report: Patriots will sign WR Michael Jenkins

Been waiting for the Pats to start signing more guys like this, cheap vet WRs and DTs. Most intriguing about Jenkins, at least on the surface, is his size. So, could be cut, could be starting, but when you’re depth chart for legit NFL WRs is Danny Amendola, Donald Jones and uh…. you need every body you can get.

The 30-year-old Jenkins, who caught 40 passes for 449 yards and two touchdowns last season with the Vikings, is a 6-foot-4, 214-pounder ou
