— James Palmer (@JamesPalmerTV) November 30, 2015It was a grim sight for the Patriots, who were already playing without top wide receivers Julian Edelman and Danny Amendola and scat back Dion Lewis. Gronkowski is New England's leading receiver with 843 yards and eight touchdowns on the season.
He had five catches for 74 yards and a score before leaving Sunday.
Gronkowski is no stranger to injury. He has had a torn ACL in his right knee, multiple surgeries on a broken forearm and back surgery.
