The former Buccaneers Tight End Rob Gronkowski was undoubtedly one of the greatest athletes to play the sport.

Gronkowski was expected to play for at least one more season in the NFL, given the circumstances that Brady came out of his retirement earlier this year. Moreover, he wasn’t vocal about such decisions anywhere by the end of last season. All of a sudden, it came as a huge shocker for the fans.

However, his agent Drew Rosenhaus, who represented Gronkowski for more than a decade, believes that the tight end might come back and get in action with Tom Brady in the mid-season. However, it was just a ”Gut feeling” of a man who was close to the athlete for several years.

“I always stick with my opinion, and as I said before, I wouldn’t be surprised if circumstances played out in a given fashion where Tom Brady and the Buccaneers need Rob if later in the season, Rob decides that he’s going to come back for his guy Tom Brady and maybe finish the year out and help the team win another championship,” Rosenhaus said in a recent clip released by him.

“I’m not predicting that, and I’m not saying that’s coming from Rob, because it’s not. Rob says he’s retired. But that’s just my opinion. I’ve represented him for more than a decade, and that’s just my gut feeling.” he added to his explanation.
