The Facts: Following up on a previous item. ... Per a source with knowledge of the situation, tight end Rob Gronkowski will have his fourth arm surgery next week. The specific date has not been selected. Dr. James Andrews, we’re told, will serve as a consultant for the procedure, which will be performed by Dr. Jesse Jupiter.

Diehards Line:As PFT's Mike Florio reiterated, the development means that doctors have determined that a lingering infection is finally gone. The surgery will entail removal of the plate currently holding Gronkowski’s arm in place, and the replacement of it with a new one. Again, the expected timetable for the recovery from the upcoming procedure is 10-11 weeks.
