Rob Gronkowski played through illness

Patriots TE Rob Gronkowski revealed after Sunday's game against the Jets that he played through an illness.  "I didn't think I was playing this morning," he said.  Gronk skipped pregame warmups but toughed it out for 60 minutes.  It helps explain his lackluster 4-catch, 31-yard outing.  He should be fine for Week 6 and will remain a rock-solid TE1 option.
