In a recent podcast, Gronkowski openly criticized Kraft, condemning his comments as "silly." Kraft had previously suggested that Swift should have selected Gronkowski over Kelce, emphasizing Gronk's appearance.

During an appearance on MassLive's 'Eye on Foxborough' podcast, Gronkowski didn't mince words and said, "Kraft is always being silly. He's always being silly."

Kraft, an 82-year-old business executive who has owned the Patriots since 1994, is known for his playful banter, according to the Daily Mail.

Speaking about his relationship with Kostek, Gronkowski shared, "But I'm very happy to be with my girl, Camille. She's a sweetheart. She was actually a Patriots cheerleader. We go down in history. But Mr Kraft always has a job. And he's always got silly jokes out there too. So that's just Mr Kraft for you."

Acknowledging Kraft's comments about his looks, Gronkowski added, "And I appreciate his comments. You know, commenting on my looks, saying I'm very good-looking because I will say Travis is a dime piece. He's a 10 out of 10. So if he says I'm better looking than Travis Kelce, then hey, I'm like a 10.2," as reported by the Daily Mail.

Robert Kraft suggested Taylor Swift should've dated Robert Gronkowski

In a chat with fans in February, Kraft shared his thoughts on Swift's rise to fame, suggesting she could have chosen a different tight end to date besides the Chiefs' starter.

Recalling Swift's first stadium concert at Gillette Stadium, home of the Patriots, on his birthday in 2010, Kraft reminisced, "Her first stadium concert was on my birthday in 2010, June 5th. We convinced her and her family that she could sell out a stadium. When she came to view the Chiefs play the Patriots this year at Gillette, I gave her a framed ticket from that concert."

Reflecting on Swift's journey since then, Kraft quipped, "Think about it, she was like 18, 19, and she's done pretty well since then. Except maybe she should have been dating Gronk- he's better looking."
