It’s easy to forget now, but the last time these two teams met (Nov. 7, 2010), Gronkowski was a still-developing rookie involved in a miscue that contributed to a surprising 34-14 blowout loss. Gronkowski was playing as part of the wedge on the kickoff return team when he signaled for a fair catch of a short, high-arcing kickoff early in the first quarter. The only problem was that running back Sammy Morris came up behind him and did the same, the two had a miscommunication, and the ball landed on the ground untouched and the Browns recovered. (Cleveland quickly turned it into a touchdown and the rout was on.)
