Rapoport: Gronk seriously considering retirement after 2018

This is not news.

 

[Quest4SevenHomie]

He's going that Ronda Rousey direction. He wants to be a pro wrestler like her.

 

[SHOWTIME15]

This is not news.

I think it's been more speculation on our part that he'll retire, but we haven't gotten any news from people from the Gronk camp until today.

 

[spook75]

Hey.. No surprise and he should. Take your success and enjoy the rewards. I know I am very grateful for his work for this team. Superstar.

 

[Fixit]

If he thinks it's his time, then he should. Getting out while you're young, rich, healthy, and legendary isn't the worst of fates.

 

[Triumph]

He had fun thats for sure.

 

[LightSkinSmurf]

Yeah, I hate watching him be a shell of his former self. Hopefully he can go out on top with one more ring.

 

[slam]

For the first time this is neither surprising nor concerning. Unless he can turn back time losing 2019 Gronk is not losing that much.

 

[Bourne Again Christian]

We need the beast Gronk today who's this little sensitive *****.
I blame the TB12 diet.

This whole post is kind of hyperbole.

 

[maust]

He had fun thats for sure.

Not according to Lame Johnson

 

[RobertWeathers]

What these guys physically endure to play this game is incomprehensible.

I want what's best for Gronk. Whatever Gronk decides make it so.

 

[patriot1136]

Who are these "people close to him"? I'm not totally surprised by this, but I won't believe it until it actually happens.

 

[signbabybrady]

Say it ain't so

 

[Kargetina]

One 4th down stop and he would have had the fairytale ending last year. He was unbelievable in the SuperBowl, unbelievable against the Steelers...imagine if he retired after winning it all being as dominant as ever! Alas...

Hopefully he goes out as the champion he’s been for this team. If not, thank you Gronk for everything you’ve done for the Pats. Once in a lifetime player.

 

[PatsGirl2011]

I hate when people drop news like this before big games. I hope when Brady retires it comes as a surprise and not with great speculation.

 

[everlong]

Hopefully he can give us three more games of Gronk-mode and head off into the sunset as the GOAT.

Well, he is cuter...

I’m wondering if this is true.. it still seems like defenses give him either their best DB or enormous attention with help over the top. Seems to me like he’s still been an impact player, even with the reduced stats

 

[Clonamery]

Is that regular guy serious or Roethlisberger serious?
