**New York, NY** – NFL legend Rob Gronkowski was the victim of a hilarious prank by his colleagues on the Fox NFL Sunday show. During a fake segment, the crew convinced Gronk that a non-existent tight end named “Rich Russo” had been activated by the Dallas Cowboys.

The prank started with Fox NFL Insider Jay Glazer “breaking news” about Russo, a supposed Pro Bowl tight end who was “a complete game-changer.” Gronkowski, confused but trying to play along, commented on Russo’s potential rustiness and the impact he would have alongside Jake Ferguson.

Hall of Famer Terry Bradshaw then added another layer of absurdity by claiming Russo was missing two fingers on his right hand, prompting Gronk to question how that would affect his catching ability.

The crew struggled to maintain their composure, and host Kurt Menefee finally revealed the truth to Gronkowski. A shocked Gronkowski admitted that he had never heard of Rich Russo and couldn’t figure out how to “seem knowledgeable” about the fake player.

Gronkowski, despite being surprised, took the prank in stride, highlighting his trademark good humor and quick wit. He acknowledged that the prank left him “always ready” for anything.
