After working as a full-time contributor to Fox NFL Sunday for the previous two years, Gronk has taken on a new position with the network.
He is not a regular analyst, but rather a contributor to the network.
Gronkowski is also involved with Fox NFL Kickoff, the hour-long Sunday program that precedes Fox NFL Sunday.
Over the weekend, he took Johnson’s place because the 81-year-old was off on Sunday.
In Week 12, the two will switch places, with Gronk taking this weekend’s Sunday off.
