On Sunday, Gronk was missed greatly by the Buccaneers supporters. They suffered their second straight loss in the NFL. Kansas City Chiefs made light work of Todd Bowles and Co as they registered a 41-31 win. Interestingly, Chiefs’ tight end Travis Kelce registered a record that had a connection with the retired star, Rob Gronkowski. Kelce is now fifth all-time in career receiving yards by a tight end. He surpassed the former Bucs star’s record (9286) and now has 9328 yards. Meanwhile, NFL fans think the 33-year-old Gronk still has the fire left in him. Many users requested the New York-born star to rejoin the Bucs and rescue them.
A passionate fan asked Gronk to come back.
Come back to Tom, Gronk! https://t.co/Iy0wZOXv3O

This fan thinks it is not about missing Gronk from the team.
I think your not getting the point. Yes Brady misses him but when Gronk left, the narrative wasn't so much Gronk leaving but what could Tom do at 45. It was literally a discussion people were having every day about how much the Chiefs would miss Tyreek.

Another user asked if the Bucs missed Jensen or Gronk more.

Will Rob Gronkowski un-retire for Tom Brady?
After the first three games, Tampa Bay tight ends caught just nine passes. The lack of passing games and a weak offense curtailed their chances in the last two games. The losses have put their position in limbo. In this stage, they miss the experienced duo, who recovered them in the past.
Gronkowski retired in June 2022. It was his second retirement. The first was in 2019 when he was with the Patriots. The experienced superstar has stepped out of football and entered the business world. “I’m done with football,” he said in an interview. However, the fans are a bit agitated.
This user had a different view.
Brady/Gronk. Not even close. Plus, Gronk is a great run blocker
