Earlier in the day, Belichick said when asked about how Gronkowski looks: “We’ll list on the injury report whatever his situation is”.

The Patriots had ideal attendance at practice for the first time since October 14.
“It’s always good to be out there with your teammates and staff and put the cleats on and run around”, said Edelman, who underwent surgery on the foot.
After two days of practice, Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski made a quick pit stop in front of reporters inside the Patriots locker room. “Thanks, buddy”, he said.
In other injury news, New Orleans Saints wide receiver Brandin Cooks missed practice on Thursday with a concussion and his status for Sunday’s game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers appears to be in doubt.
Edelman’s return highlighted a mild December day at practice when temperatures were in the mid-50s and every Patriots player was accounted for during the workout.
Gronkowski practiced for the second consecutive day on Friday.
Edelman did not disclose what exactly he participated in during his practice but it is still a good sign for New England. Edelman is an extremely important part of the offense, and if he does return quickly, Tom Brady and company should be ready to get right back on track.
