Reports: Huge Update Emerges on Rob Gronkowski’s NFL Return After Weeks of Rumors

Despite stepping out of his football career, former Tight End Rob Gronkowski remained a hot entity in the NFL world. All thanks to his habit of making comebacks after announcing retirement. While fans were expecting a similar turnaround to his career, NFL insider Ian Rapoport dropped a major update on his return.

A few days ago, head coach Todd Bowles revealed that Rob Gronkowski won’t board the Buccaneers ship this season. The management had engaged in talks with the veteran; however, he showed no interest in changing his mind. At the same time, he refused to ignore the possibility of returning next year, which means Gronkowski has left the gateway open for more speculations.

“Bucs had already been having conversations with Gronk, as Todd Bowles, the coach confirmed to the Tampa Bay Times this week. He’s not gonna play this year, he is staying retired,” Rapoport said in his latest news from the football world.

“However it leaves the door open to potentially playing next year. And if his old friend Tom Brady does end up leaving the Bucs, there’s a possibility that Gronk follows” he added.

Well, it’s yet to be seen, how things turn out for Tom Brady because there have been multiple reports suggesting the quarterback’s retirement following this season.

However, experts believe that he might continue regardless of what happens this year. Tom Brady becomes euphoric when it comes to titles, and if he is able to bag another one in line, it could motivate him to wear the NFL jersey again.

Rob Gronkowski branched into various aspects of life

After spending 11 seasons in the gridiron, Gronkowski called it a career. During this tenure, he partnered with Brady and registered surreal NFL records elevating his status as the greatest Tight End of all time. His four Super Bowl titles happen to be evidence for this notion.

While announcing retirement this year, he mentioned embarking on a new journey in the business world. “I’m done with football, and I’m stepping my feet into the business world, the business ventures, and seeing where I can find my place,” Gronkowski said, adding that he won’t return even if Brady calls him back.

Although he made big claims, Gronkowski is yet to land a stable career path. This offseason, he tried his luck in WWE, played the role of an anchor for kids’ choice awards, and worked for Fox Sports. His recent “I am bored” tweet sparked an NFL return; however, no such moves actually happened. As this is a developing story, fans can tune in for more updates on Gronkowski and his future endeavors.
