Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Rob Gronkowski is already considered one of the best players in NFL history at his position, and he cemented that status with another milestone Sunday night.

With a 19-yard reception in the second quarter against the New Orleans Saints, Gronkowski eclipsed 9,000 career receiving yards, making him just the fifth tight end in NFL history to achieve that mark.

Gronk is a first-ballot future Hall of Famer, and he’s proving to still be among the league’s most dominant pass-catchers.
