The New England Patriots' offense took a serious blow just before halftime of the AFC Championship Game.

Tight end Rob Gronkowski was ruled out the game after a helmet-to-helmet hit from Jacksonville Jaguars safety Barry Church late in the second quarter.

Gronkowski appeared to be woozy after the hit and walked to the locker room.

He had one catch for 21 yards before leaving.

After Gronkowski's exit, the Patriots capitalized on a pass interference penalty by setting up running back James White for a 1-yard rushing touchdown to cut the Jaguars' lead to 14-10.
