Patriots TE Rob Gronkowski to have back surgery.

Tight end Rob Gronkowski will undergo back surgery on Friday and is expected to miss two months. This will be Gronkowski's third back surgery.

He has had two previous surgeries to repair herniated disks in his back -- in 2009, when he was at the University of Arizona and missed the entire season, and in 2013, in his fourth season with the Patriots, when he underwent surgery in June and didn't return until Week 7.

The Patriots Can’t Replace Rob Gronkowski.
Gronk is expected to miss the rest of this season after having back surgery. New England may be able to stay afloat in the short term — but its long-term concerns are much more troubling.
