Gronkowski's Tinder advice: Google pickup lines

When it comes to pickup lines, Rob Gronkowski has no qualms about turning to Google for some help.

The New England Patriots tight end shared his tips on navigating Tinder with ESPN The Magazine's Sam Alipour as part of a story examining how athletes use the app and social media to find dates.

"Swipe right on everything. Get the ball rolling," Gronkowski, who Alipour reveals went by the AIM screen name "chickmagnet4life," said. "Make them laugh. Just Google 'Tinder pickup lines.'"

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Le'Veon Bell said he gets so many messages from women on social media that he has to enlist the help of his agent.

"You have your agent reach out, see what they're about," he said. "I can take myself out of the process."

Not everyone is as lucky, though. Just ask New Orleans Pelicans star Anthony Davis.

"My DM's not popping," Davis said. "I don't know what my problem is."
