"I’m singing the national anthem," Gronkowski told TMZ Sports in a recent interview.
Gronkowski won’t be singing alone. He'll be joined by the New Directions Veterans Choir, a group "comprised primarily of men and women who have served proudly in the United States military."
"They’re going to be there with me," Gronkowski added. "So, it’s kind of like I’m the quarterback and I have the best offensive line in front of me. So, they can make me look good because I sang the national anthem before the committee, and they all looked at each other, and Julian Edelman was there as well. And Julian looked at me as well and goes, ‘I need 10 more shots for you to go on, so I can keep listening.’
"So, they’re going to make me look good" he added. "I got to keep practicing. It’s going to be a lot of fun."
