Among all players to be targeted at least 25 times this season, none have been more efficient with their targets than Rob Gronkowski. Despite missing two games already this year, his 1,084 receiving yards are 46 more than the next closest tight end, and his 8 receiving touchdowns are tied for the second-most at his position.
Among all players -- at any position -- his average of 83.4 yards per game ranks fifth, with just four wide receivers ranked ahead of him.
In terms of standard fantasy points, he is averaging 2.2 more per game than any other tight end, and has reached double-digits in eight games already. Over the past four games, his average has jumped to 16.6 fantasy points per game, with him topping 140 yards twice and totaling four touchdowns over that span.
And Gronkowski's elite form is expected to continue in Week 17, as he gets a rematch with the New York Jets, who allowed him to catch six passes for 83 yards and two touchdowns in their Week 6 meeting.
