Unlike Earth and other planets in our solar system, which orbit the sun, rogue planets float freely through the universe untethered to a star.
How does gravity work on a rogue planet that's not tethered to a star?

Not true. It is still a planet. The very definition of a "rogue planet" is a planet that does not orbit a star.
It's gotta be orbiting something. Even if it's some super irregular path.

A mysterious "rogue planet" has been observed gobbling 6 billion tons of gas and dust a second — an unprecedented rate
Unprecedented by the same folks that don’t know how hot or cold it was 300+ years ago right here on planet earth.
