Rob Gronkowskis career so far could be defined by his pass-catching talent and inability to stay healthy.

Realizing that hes not getting any younger, the 28-year-old New England tight end is changing his habits in hopes of keeping his body in shape for another brutal NFL season, and that includes altering his eating ways according to ESPNs Mark Reiss.

This is just one part of the new outlook for Gronkowski, as he has made some other notable changes in returning from a third career back surgery. Specifically, hes adopted parts of Tom Bradys diet, while making a full-scale commitment to other physical-based work at Bradys Sports Therapy Center (in addition to his regular load in the teams strength program).

Copying Bradys diet, of course, requires Gronkowski to avoid consuming alcoholic and caffeine-based beverages. That doesnt sound like an easy task for a party-animal like Gronkowski, but thats something hed willingly give up if it meant being 100 percent healthy.

He was healthy enough to experience his first preseason game since 2012, as he took part in 14 snaps during the Pats 27-23 loss to the Houston Texans last Saturday.

Im glad I was out there, he said. It felt good just to get the game speed. You can never get enough reps. You can never get enough practice reps. So it felt great to go out there and get my feet wet and see what its all about again.

Gronkowski hasnt played a complete season since 2011, missing at least a game in each of the succeeding five years. He missed the most time in 2016, when a back injury cost him half the season.

With Martellus Bennett gone, the success of the tight end position for the Patriots mostly rests on the shoulders of Gronkowski, who, when playing is close to unstoppable. The Arizona product had 540 receiving yards and three touchdown receptions on just 25 catches in eight games played last season.
