“HE GOT SCREWED!!!”
That’s Rob Gronkowski weighing in on his former head coach, Bill Belichick, missing out on first-ballot Hall of Famer honors.
We caught up with the former Patriots superstar outside of NBC in New York City this week … and asked how he felt about the the biggest football story of the week.
His reaction was exactly what you’d expect.
“Aww, he should be 100% Pro Football Hall of Fame first ballot,” Gronk said. “He got screwed! He got screwed!
Of course, there are plenty of former and current NFL stars who agree … including Patrick Mahomes, who said, “Insane… don’t even understand how this could be possible.”
Former NFL coach Bruce Arians also chimed in … telling us it was “terrible” that Belichick didn’t make it on the first try — suggesting jealousy played a role in the decision.
“If you voted against it, you need to come [out] public,” Arians said.

“I think everyone thought it was a given that Bill would just go straight in, so it’s a shame.”
Being a Hall of Famer is a top honor, but being a first-balloter takes it to another level … one that pretty much everyone agrees should’ve been given to a guy like Bill.
