The tight end who has made a career with his insane touchdowns had to do 10 dizzy bat spins. Furthermore, he had to find 3 items around his house to juggle. Finally, he had to do ten jumping Jacks while spelling Gronkowski backward.

DeGeneres, however, kept it a bit football-related by asking ‘Gronk’ to finish with his best touchdown dance. Gronkowski was game and said, “I’m ready.”

“I don’t have a baseball bat but I have a bamboo stick,” said Gronkowski as he began stage one of the challenge. (pictured) 

With 30 left on the clock, he took 5 seconds to steady himself before quickly finding 3 items to juggle. Gronkowski put on a brilliant display here and did not drop a single piece. Following this, in a race against time ‘Gronk’ progressed to the Jumping Jacks and spelling his name backward. 

“I-K-S-W-O-K-N-O-R-G,” said Gronkowski who then seemed to have forgotten the final part of the challenge as he started into the camera. DeGeneres promptly reminded him to give fans a glimpse of his favorite touchdown celebration.

“It’s the London celebration, it’s the marching of the guard and the spike, there we go,” explained the tight end as he completed the challenge.  

Tampa Bay Buccaneers fans will hope to see the touchdown celebration regularly over the course of the guaranteed 16 regular-season games and possibly in the NFL playoffs too. 

Will new arrivals Rob Gronkowski and Tom Brady be able to end Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ 13-year playoff drought?
