Rob Gronkowski to be inducted into Patriots Hall of Fame

The New England Patriots have announced that former tight end Rob Gronkowski will be officially inducted into the Patriots Hall of Fame on Saturday, November 7, 2026. The ceremony is scheduled to take place at Patriots Place Plaza, the day before the team faces the Green Bay Packers.

Gronkowski, who was informed of his selection via a voicemail from team owner Robert Kraft, will become the 38th inductee into the franchise's Hall of Fame. During his tenure with the Patriots, he became the team's all-time leader in touchdowns with 80, earned four First-team All-Pro nods, and won three Super Bowl championships.

The induction follows his previous recognition as a member of the NFL 2010s All-Decade Team. He joins other former teammates, such as Tom Brady and Julian Edelman, in the franchise's Hall of Fame.
