Rob Gronkowski Carted Off With Painful-Looking Knee Injury [Video] [UPDATE]

Rob Gronkowski went down with a painful-looking knee injury sustained on a hit from safety Darian Stewart in the fourth quarter as the Patriots were attempting to run out the clock versus the Broncos. While New England has been able to keep chugging along without weapons like Dion Lewis, Julian Edelman, and Danny Amendola, Gronk is the one they really can’t afford to lose. Last year, his return in Week 3 from an ACL tear ignited the Patriots offense. Hopefully this injury is not as bad as it appeared.

UPDATE: Here is video of Gronk walking after he received an X-Ray. We will await further news as opposed to playing Internet doctors and diagnosing him with a clean bill of health:

UPDATE II: Sounds like good news:

More testing likely and further updates ahead, but one source just texted this on Gronk's leg injury: "Doesn't appear to be serious."
