Kay Adams and fans criticize Patriots for giving Gronkowski's number to Doubs

Kay Adams expressed strong disapproval of the New England Patriots' decision to assign No. 87, famously worn by Rob Gronkowski, to new wide receiver Romeo Doubs. Gronkowski stated the team did not consult him before making this move, leading to fan backlash regarding the appropriateness of the decision. Doubs recently signed a four-year deal with the Patriots after his time with the Green Bay Packers. In his regular-season debut against the Seattle Seahawks, Doubs failed to record a catch and contributed to an overall underwhelming performance from the team, which lost 13-10. The controversy reflects on Gronkowski's legacy and the expectations for Doubs moving forward.
