Rob Gronkowski reflects on playing vs. Chiefs in Super Bowl LV

This week, Chiefs Wire’s Ed Easton Jr. spoke to four-time Super Bowl champion Rob Gronkowski.

In his interview with Easton Jr., Gronkowski discussed his partnership on behalf of Bounty and reflected on his Tampa Buccaneers defeating the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LV.

“As the Bounty man, I’m fired up to be back for a three-peat. Heading to NOLA, there was no doubt that Drew [Brees] had to be my wingman,” said Gronkowski. “We’re ready to chow down on some wings and wipe up every mess with Bounty, baby.”

The last of Gronkowski’s four Super Bowl titles came against the Chiefs during the 2020 season. Then, playing for the Buccanneers, his team was dominant on both sides of the ball in the Super Bowl LV victory at Raymond James Stadium.

“Man, I remember we were so prepared for that game,” Gronkowski explained. “We dotted all our I’s and crossed all our T’s. I could have called the play before the play was even called because we were just that prepared. We studied the set of plays we would go into the game with, and we knew them in the back of our heads like it was nothing. So, that’s what really separated us in that game: just knowing what we [were] going to do and just going out there and executing what we’re going to do, and that’s what we did. And the game plan was nothing short of spectacular.”

Gronkowski caught two of Tom Brady’s three touchdown passes in the Buccaneers’ 31–9 victory over Kansas City.

“Everyone came together and had one goal, and that was to dominate the Chiefs. We sure did, [on the offensive] the side of the ball, [and] the defensive side of the ball. [I don’t really] remember, like, [the] scheme totally. I can’t recall because it was a while ago, but I remember our game plan was superb.”
