Summary
Peter is joined by 4-time Super Bowl champion and 5-time 1st Team All-Pro Rob Gronkowski for a delightful 40-minute chat on Gronk’s career, his current daily routine, and thoughts on his former teammate Tom Brady. Gronk goes in depth on his near-trade to Detroit, why his injury-shortened 2016 season could have been his very best, and his thoughts on Jimmy Graham returning to football after a two-year hiatus.

| 0:00.0 | This is an I-Heart podcast. |
| 0:04.8 | The Season with Peter Schrager is a production of the NFL in partnership with IHeartRadio. |
| 0:20.2 | What's up, everybody? Welcome to the season with Peter Schrager. Training camps are here. |
| 0:24.8 | All 32 teams reporting. We've got actual football going on. |
| 0:29.2 | And as I record this in hot, balmy New York City, Sequin Barclay will not miss a single practice of training camp because he is already there |
| 0:39.5 | in East Rutherford signing a very rare, very interesting one-year deal despite being put on the |
| 0:48.4 | franchise tag. I didn't even, I got to put my hand up here. I'm on live TV when it happened. |
| 0:53.9 | I didn't know it was even a possibility they could do that. |
| 0:56.5 | When my co-host Jamie Erdahl is like, we got breaking news. |
| 0:59.5 | Sequins agreed to terms. |
| 1:00.7 | I'm like, accrete the terms to what? |
| 1:02.6 | I thought it was just you can play on the franchise tag or you can sit out the season. It turns out there is a loophole and the Giants and Joe Shane found that loophole |
| 1:12.2 | where it's a one-year deal. And there's been a lot of confusion on the incentives on how it all |
| 1:18.2 | works. But from my understanding right now, he has to hit three different numbers tied to |
| 1:23.8 | playoffs to hit these incentives so that he can make some sort of incentive of about $300,000 |
| 1:30.5 | each for the three incentives. So from what I'm gathering, and again, this is in real time, |
| 1:36.1 | if he has 1350 rushing yards, so 1,350 rushing yards, and they make the playoffs, he gets an extra |
| 1:42.5 | $300K. If he has 65 catches and they make the playoffs, he gets extra 300k if he has 65 catches and they make |
| 1:45.6 | the playoffs he gets an extra 300k and if he's 11 total touchdowns and the playoffs he gets an extra |
| 1:50.7 | 300k so when it's all said and done for you number guys out there and gals sequin has a deal with the |
| 1:56.9 | giants that will be worth 10.1 million guaranteed. He gets two million right up front. |
| 2:02.7 | And then there's those incentives he can get if they make the playoffs and he hits those things. |
