Mark Gronowski is the winningest quarterback in college football history at the Division I level.
He's now joined the Miami Dolphins in hopes of making their roster.
The Dolphins signed the former South Dakota State and Iowa star as an undrafted free agent, and there are both questions and intrigue surrounding him.
In the Big Ten, Gronowski didn't look like a prototypical NFL passer. He did have a 63.4% completion rate, but he threw for just 1,741 yards with 10 touchdowns and 7 interceptions.
Sure, that's why he went undrafted, but it also raises the question of whether he can even stick around down the depth chart while having less than ideal passing ability.
But then you expand further, and you start to wonder whether Gronowski may actually have a fascinating role even early in his career.
At Iowa in 2025, Gronowski also rushed for 545 yards and 16 touchdowns -- and that's while accounting for the fact that QB rushing yards are depleted by sacks in college football.
He also caught a 5-yard TD, for what it's worth.

When you look at his numbers, Taysom Hill comes to mind.
Yes, the Dolphins already brought aboard Malik Willis to be their starting quarterback, and he's quite mobile himself.
But would they consider a goal-line package centered around the physical-running Gronowski?
Could they let him play tight end somewhere down the road?
These aren't questions the Dolphins have delved into publicly at this point, but they're ones worth asking.
Clearly, Gronowski is an impressive athlete and football player. It's just a matter of figuring out how to actually use him in Miami.
