Rob Gronkowski shared his desire to see AJ Brown playing for the New England Patriots at some point. The Patriots are off to a terrific start in the 2025 NFL season, boasting a 4-2 record after six games, leading the AFC East division and playing a fun brand of football under Mike Vrabel.
Second-year quarterback Drake Maye received a big weapon in the offseason, as the Patriots signed Stefon Diggs to a three-year deal. Diggs, DeMario Douglas and Kayshon Boutte have thrived this season, but the team could add another asset to the room.
Talking with Kay Adams on her “Up & Adams” show, Gronkowski mentioned AJ Brown as a player he would like to see playing in New England, and even recalled that Brown was over the moon after getting Julian Edelman and Tom Brady’s jersey in the offseason.

“AJ Brown, obviously, but that’s been news for a long time now, going to the Patriots, since he’s such a big Patriots fan as well, and you saw that when he got Julian’s jersey and Tom’s jersey in the offseason,” Gronkowski said. “So a wide receiver, big-time player, I’m not talking just trade for, you know, a slightly average guy. They got to make a splash if they do make the trade, and they can’t overpay either. It just has to be fair.”

He has shared cryptic messages on social media to let fans know he doesn’t feel comfortable with his usage and the Patriots appear to be a potential landing spot, should the Eagles part with Brown.
