Rob Gronkowski, Buccaneers clinch Super Bowl berth with win over Packers in NFC championship game

Rob Gronkowski is heading back to the Super Bowl, and this time he doesn’t have to travel far to get there.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers defeated the Green Bay Packers 31-26 Sunday afternoon to win the NFC Championship and in doing so became the first team in NFL history to clinch a home Super Bowl.

Super Bowl LV is being played at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa.

Gronkowski and quarterback partner Tom Brady will attempt to win their fourth Vince Lombardi Trophy together, the first three coming with the New England Patriots.

The Buccaneers will face the winner of the AFC Championship game between the Kansas City Chiefs and Buffalo Bills.

Gronkowski recorded one reception Sunday, a 29-yard gain that helped set up a field goal that gave the Bucs a 31-23 lead with 4:46 left in the fourth quarter.

The former Arizona Wildcats standout now has two catches in the postseason for a total of 43 yards.
