Rob Gronkowski will attempt another field goal during Super Bowl 58 after failing miserably in 2023

Rob Gronkowski attempted to make a field goal during a live commercial that aired for Super Bowl 57 last February. It was part of a FanDuel promotion that paid a share of $10 million to everyone who used the sportsbook to bet at least $5 on the Super Bowl.

All Gronk had to do was attempt the kick, and bettors won. And, well, attempt he did. Make he did not. Gronk hooked the field goal left. Everyone got paid, but the retired all-pro tight end was saddled with defeat. So, now he’s back to redeem himself.

FanDuel announced Tuesday Gronk is coming to Super Bowl 58 in Las Vegas to finish what he started with the “Kick of Destiny 2.” This time, though, bettors get a free wager on whether he will make or miss the field goal, with the payout being split between whoever gets it right.

“I can’t lie, when I missed the Kick of Destiny during last year’s Super Bowl, it was devastating. I told the team at FanDuel I knew I could do better and needed a shot at redemption this year,” Gronkowski said. “I’m going to show America I can make that kick, even with all the pressure of doing it live in front of the entire country. No wind is going to stop me, and we’re going through the uprights this year for everyone who picks that I’m going to make the kick.”

I think I’m riding with Gronk to nail it this time.
