It’s Madden 19 Gronk Day, and that means it’s time to celebrate the career of New England Patriots star Rob Gronkowski. He’s been amongst the top players in the Madden 19 game throughout his star career. In honor of his recent retirement announcement, Madden 19 rolled out some special new promotional events and Rob Gronkowski items in the Ultimate Team part of the game. Here are more details on all the Gronk goodness available through Madden now and how to earn a free 99 LTD Rob Gronkowski Tribute card.

Some gamers have already commented on this card about what it will take to earn a 99 OVR Rob Gronkowski. It will mean playing 10 games between now and Wednesday, Mar. 27 in Squad vs. CPU mode. Then, gamers need to do another 10 games between Wednesday and Friday (Mar. 29). See more details in the House Rules section below.

There’s also a NAT Tribute Gronk card up for grabs through Madden 19 House Rules. To achieve the NAT Rob Gronkowski card, gamers need to complete two objectives. The first event is going from Mar. 25 through Mar. 27. It involves scoring touchdowns from 20-plus yards away (worth 10 points) or from 40-plus yards away (worth 14 points).
The second event will begin on Wednesday (Mar. 27) and goes until Friday (Mar. 29). The event details haven’t been announced just yet, but once they are, gamers should complete that in order to achieve the NAT Tribute Rob Gronkowski card.

For completing both House Rules events, you’ll earn quite a bit of great players and content. Not only is there the LTD Tribute Gronk 99 OVR card, but also a free 97 Combine player card, a 97 Team MVP, and a full Ultimate Legend player.
As shown above, gamers can add that Rob Gronkowski NAT card to their squad giving them a 99-rated tight end. Or, gamers can opt to quicksell the Gronkowski card for 6500 Training. So it’s definitely a promotion to take advantage of in honor of the great Rob Gronkowski!
