“We would have been one of the best duos to play,” Gronkowski previously said on his ‘Dudes on Dudes’ podcast

Travis Kelce thinks he and Rob Gronkowski would be too strong together.

The Kansas City Chiefs player, 35, shared his opinion on what a team with himself and Gronkowski, 35, would look like after the retired New England Patriots player suggested the idea on his Dudes on Dudes podcast this week. 

“I think we would be perfect to be both on the same team,” Gronkowski told his former teammate Julian Edelman on the podcast. 

He went on to explain that he felt that they “kind of counter each other” with their playing styles as Kelce can “line up anywhere” and can “motion to any point on the field at any given time,” whereas he was “too big to be motioning.”

“We would compliment each other unbelievably and I would say that we would have been one of the best duos to play, if we’d played with each other,” Gronkowski said. “We would’ve broken records.”

Not long after the clip was posted on social media, Kelce responded noting that the idea would be “unfair” to other teams due to the way they played the game.

“Dudes …. Same Team!?!? Would be unfair!!” he wrote on X. “Just imagined myself lateraling the ball down field to @RobGronkowski.” 

This isn’t the first time Gronkowski has floated the idea of the two pro-footballers possibly playing on the same team. He previously shared on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon in January that the two on the field together would be “impressive.”

“Imagine if we were teammates on the field, on the same team as well. Oh man, that would be pretty impressive,” he told host Fallon at the time, before discussing how those football skills could be transferred into dance skills.

“I mean, we’re great dance partners,” the former NFL star continued. “We would dominate like the dance floor.”

Gronkowski, who has broken several NFL players in his own right, has also been no stranger to giving Kelce his flowers. In the same show, the New England Patriots legend called Kelce a “beast” on the field. 

“Travis and Patrick have just been putting on a display for the NFL week in and week out,” he said. “There’s no doubt about that, but there’s one record that I am proud to hold to this day still and it’s the single season receiving record for most touchdowns by a tight end.”

“So if he breaks that one, I will be really bummed. But he has broken about every other record so far,” he added at the time.
