Rob Gronkowski probably had a to-do list for when he returned home from Minnesota and the Super Bowl. Calling 911 certainly wasn’t on it.
The Patriots tight end came home the day after a 41-33 loss to the Eagles in Super Bowl LII to find out his home had been burglarized. He made the call himself, TMZ reported.
“This isn’t an emergency. … This is just uh, Rob Gronkowski calling,” Gronk said to the operator. “While I was gone, my whole house got robbed while on the Super Bowl trip and I just got back.”
Foxborough, Mass., police would not confirm what was taken, but the Boston Globe reported the burglar or burglars made off with “multiple safes, and possible guns.” The police report says the criminals broke into the house through a window and raided several rooms, but not Gronkowski’s bedroom, according to TMZ.
Gronkowski caught two touchdowns passes in the loss to the Eagles. After the game, he didn’t refute a report he could consider retiring this offseason.
“I’ll sit down in the next couple of weeks and see where I’m at,” he said after the loss.
