New York Giants TE Theo Johnson has been repeatedly shown video clips of the retired Rob Gronkowski by head coach Brian Daboll, who expects to see similar results from the rookie has his career progresses.
‘There’s countless times where we’ll be in the middle of a meeting and he’ll be like, ‘Theo, Dabs wants to see you.’ Pulls me out of the meeting and I’m like, ‘What could this possibly be about?’ And then he’s got up a clip of Gronk just running somebody over, catching a back shoulder, and he’s like, ‘This is what we expect from you.’ I can tell he puts a lot of intentional eye into the tight end position … I think it goes to show how he feels about me and what he thinks I’m capable of,’ Johnson told Art Stapleton of NorthJersey.com.
