They are going to have to start 2-2 and ease the new guys in while Godwin recovers. Great career gronk!

 

[amfootball]

I don't believe him.

 

[amfootball]

He will come back mid season.
Tampa really needs to look at getting another TE.

 

[Lagaffe_07]

Oh no he didn’t thank the Patriots.

 

[Deus Irae]

I don't believe him.

“It would not surprise me if Tom Brady calls him during the season to come back and Rob answers the call,” Gronkowski said, via Adam Schefter of ESPN. “This is just my opinion but I wouldn’t be surprised if Rob comes back during the season or next season.”

1. Couldn't finish the Subway commercial even with the teleprompter.
2. Couldn't finish the Bucs run.

Damn it, Gronk!

 

[VectorPrime]

This has definitely caught me off guard and I can’t say I understand it.

 

[venecol]

Gronk retires w/ IG post, doesn't mention his former team.

Training camp 41 days away.

Sound familiar?

 

[VectorPrime]

I mean if it’s a money play well ok this seems dumb though.

Bill Burr has no patience for New Englanders who don't love Tom Brady anymore

"Tom Brady can do no wrong. And you know it."

He'll be back. He won't leave Brady in his last rodeo.

Just in time for the Super Bowl run.

 

[VectorPrime]

Such a bizarre thing.

“Teammate, friend, brother, just a few of the words that come to mind when I think of Gronk,” Brady said. “Nobody has ever embodied the idea of ‘leaving it all out on the field’ like Rob has throughout his entire career. Every single snap, I knew that no matter how many people you put in front of him, he was going to get to his spot.

“Even more important is the person he was off the field. Focused when he had to be, and FUN the rest of the time. Having Gronk in your locker room was every NFL player’s dream. I’m proud of all that we’ve accomplished together, and even more excited for all you have ahead of you. Congrats Gronk, you deserve it.”

“Rob is a true professional who left it all on the field for us the past two seasons and helped establish a championship culture in our building,” Licht said in a statement released by the team. “He played a crucial part in our Super Bowl LV championship season in 2020 and battled through a number of injuries last year while on the way to one of the most productive receiving yardage seasons in his 11-year career. It is always difficult to see a great player walk away from the game when he is still enjoying that kind of success, but the overwhelming emotions I feel today are gratitude and respect for one of the greatest tight ends who ever played the game. While his on-field accomplishments will surely earn him a gold jacket and a place in the Pro Football Hall of Fame, it is his humble attitude and team-first approach to the game that truly defined his career.”
