Following up on the
ongoing story. ... Wearing a walking boot that's replaced a cast since his February surgery to repair an injured left ankle, Gronkowski was quite upbeat about his health on Tuesday. "It's great. I'm like six and a half weeks out of surgery. I'm just getting better every day, taking it week by week and day by day," Gronkowski said with his trademark smile. "I'm walking around now. Everything is on pace. Hopefully I'm 100 percent when it comes down to the time I'm supposed to be."

He's not sure yet when he'll get out of the walking boot, but that day doesn't seem to be far off. "I don't know yet. That's all in a couple more weeks," Gronkowski said. "I'm just getting better every single day. I feel way better than last week. I feel way better since the first day of the surgery. It's coming along really well. Here on out, day by day, whatever I can do I'll be doing it. I'm definitely trying to get out there as soon as possible. ..." Assuming he continues to recover as expected, Gronkowski's ankle should allow him to work at full speed well in advance of training camp - even if he misses out on some OTA work.
