NFL franchise Tampa Bay Buccaneers TE Rob Gronkowski was seen having a cute moment with a reporter over QB Tom Brady. The 4-time Super Bowl winner with Brady was justifying one of his amazing statistics in a victory against the Eagles. During the post-game presser, Gronk corrected the reporter’s error-prone question against his best friend and Buccaneers QB.

The reporter was in awe of Brady’s quick release in throwing the football. She did state that it took him 2.16 seconds to complete his action. But Gronk quickly jumped to Brady’s defense, as he was quoted, saying, “It was actually 2.11. I saw it on the screen during the game. It was even faster than you said.” He acknowledged the reporter following his statement with his million-dollar smile.
