Rob Gronkowski Congratulates Former Patriots Teammate Upon Exciting New Job

Tampa Bay Buccaneers star tight end Rob Gronkowski recently took to Twitter to congratulate his former New England Patriots teammate Deion Branch for getting a job as the new Director of Player Development of the Louisville Cardinals. The team had announced the news on Twitter, upon which the former football player tweeted:

The former Patriots wide receiver attended the University of Arizona 2000-2002. In his first season as a fresher, the receiver was named the first-team All-Conference USA selection and was voted to be Cardinals’ Most Valuable Player and Outstanding Offensive Performer.

He was then drafted by the Patriots in 2002. And during his NFL career, the receiver went on to play for the Seahawks, the back again with the Patriots, and retired as a Colt in 2013. The veteran had played with the tight end Rob Gronkowski from 2010 to 2012. However, this is not the only team that the two share.

Rob Gronkowski had also played for the Cardinals back in his college days. And that certainly connects the two offensive players even more. And so Gronks happy with the recent news tweeted out to Branch congratulating him for his job at their college team. “Congrats Deion!! You’re going to do great. You developed me as a young player on and off the field back in the hay day!” Gronkowski tweeted.

Rob Gronkowski is however on his way to touching new heights in his career. He is on a playoff run again with his partner in crime Tom Brady. The two are certainly the most successful offensive duo in the history of football. And they may outperform that milestone, even more, this season.
