“Football Stonks Without Gronk”: NFL Fans On Twitter Question Rob Gronkowski’s Retirement Announcement Owing To Recent Comments By Agent Rosenhaus

Former New England Patriots and Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Rob Gronkowski has announced his retirement after an 11-year NFL career. The news came following a social media post from journalist Jordan Schultz, who revealed the 4-time Super Bowl champion and his decision. It has been an announcement that came under scrutiny following his agent Drew Rosenhaus and his comments.

After the announcement went public on Twitter, ESPN’s Adam Schefter revealed the tweet he received from Rosenhaus. Gronk’s agent stated, “It would not surprise me if Tom Brady calls him during the season to come back and Rob answers the call. This is just my opinion, but I wouldn’t be surprised if Rob comes back during the season or next season.”
