Gronk says he had Bucs playbook when he was under contract with the Patriots

Gronkowski boasts that he had Buccaneers playbook while still under contract with Patriots - ProFootballTalk

Gronk needs to STFU or his retirement might resume quicker than he wanted.

... even if Florio is trying to stir the pot like he’s been doing lately. I doubt the Pats gave two craps about it.

True, it helped us. I don’t care if Bucs tampered with either one because we needed Tom to move fast and it doesn’t matter what Gronk does because he wasn’t playing here anyways. I do think it’s funny that controversy is surrounded them elsewhere, for once it’s not us.

 

[TheRainMaker]

Not a big deal. He was never going to play for BB again and BB didn't mind.

People are going to find out making Gronk shut his simple mouth was a good idea

 

[sb1]

And the Patriots generally didn’t seem to be inclined to make a stink about potential tampering that may have occurred with Brady in February or March, by the Buccaneers or anyone else.

Pretty obvious the Pats wanted him gone and didn’t want to do anything to stand in the way of him walking out the door.

so the breaking news is that Gronk would only come out of retirement if he could play with Brady on the Bucs.... definitely a slow news day

 

[Hyped]

We got a 4....I am good. Don't care....love Gronk!

Now cue the long fabricated investigation to see if Gronk showed the Patriots this playbook and try to pin it to Belichick. I know one guy that can help.

Patriots need to lose a first round pick over this

Only time tampering really matters is when a team is looking to resign a player and the tampering team impacts those negotiations. Every team tampers but almost always with players already out the door. Pats did not want him back so no biggie to me.

Tamper Bay. I like the new name.

 

[Uptown]

With all the asininity Gronk has been spewing lately, I’m beginning to wonder exactly how he learned the NE playbook

#TamperBay

 

[Brewskies]

Bye Bye Gronk

Pats did want him back we were under rhe understanding he was staying retired.
Why do you think BB wait to his beach party or whatever it was.
It was to say hey Rob do you miss the game.

I told you all that Gronk would be crapping on the Pat's and BB. Boston sucks.

This is nothing compared to what's coming. Just wait until Jethro Bodine starts scoring TDs and living the lifestyle of a sophisticated international playboy down in FLA.

Arians motto is " win or lose we booze"

 

[Give Kraft A Hand]

If this was the Pats you know people would want a 4 game suspension for the QB and a loss of multiple picks.

But in all seriousness the Bucs tampered. There's nothing the Pats can really do about it...

 

[jah]

If we didn't let them tamper, there's a good chance Gronk would have played hardball with us and forced a release instead of us getting a 4 back. He had all the leverage.

 

[Hammer of Thor]

The real question is how did Bill Belichick give Gronk Tampa’s playbook?
