The NFL's kings of nicknames - Martellus "Black Unicorn" Bennett and Rob "Gronk" Gronkowski - have another idea for what to call their dynamic duo.

After Bennett's summer suggestion, the Street Fighter-themed "Ken and Ryu," lost out to Gronkowski's "Ebony and Ivory" idea, he proposed a new name for the New England Patriots tight ends Monday.

Either inspired by the 1987 classic buddy cop movie or the questionable 2016 TV remake, Bennett wants to be recognized alongside Gronk as New England's "Lethal Weapons."
