The Bengals, who are sitting at 0-4, is a team that may be looking to part with some veteran players, making this a good opportunity to scoop him up.

Even at 29 years of age and with past various injury issues, he has shown flashes of greatness in past seasons. Most notably, his 2015 campaign, where he racked up 613 yards to go with 13 touchdown receptions.

At 6’6″, he is a big target with sure hands that could provide a spark, especially in red-zone situations, where Gronk would normally thrive.
