#3 He portrayed himself in Family Guy
Rob Gronkowski did a pretty great job when it came to getting his name out there outside of his NFL career. Appearing in several television series, films, and music videos, he's made sure that his star would not burn out after retiring from football.
On January 15th, 2017, the Family Guy episode "Gronkowsbees" aired on Fox. The main storyline involved Rob Gronkowski and his entire family moving into Peter Griffin's neighborhood after his neighbor was found dead, apparently killed by a cat.

It wasn't just Gronkowski, actually. His four brothers, Gordie, Dan, Chris, and Glenn joined Rob in portraying themselves for the show. Throughout the episode, the Griffin Family, specifically Peter, is ecstatic to have one of his heroes living so close to him. However, the never ending parties begin to take a toll on the neighborhood.
Outside of Family Guy, Gronk has also appeared on MTV's Ridiculousness, HBO's The Shop, and even hosted Fox's New Year's Eve with Steve Harvey last year.
