Glenn Gronkowski Is Back On The Patriots -- Again

BOSTON (CBS) -- Fullback Glenn Gronkowski has re-signed with the Patriots. Again.

The younger brother of tight end Rob Gronkowski will now begin his third stint on the New England practice squad this season. Originally an undrafted free agent out of Kansas State, Gronkowski made the Buffalo Bills' 53-man roster at the beginning of the season and played in their season opener. He was released by Buffalo that following week, and first signed on to the Patriots practice squad on October 1.

The younger Gronk was released by the Pats for the first time on October 12 and then re-signed on October 17. He was released again on November 7.

But the 6-foot-3, 234-pounder is now back on the practice squad, and back in the New England locker room with his older brother.
