Gronk did a Q & A session with Sports Illustrated’s Ben Baskin, and was asked about his touching post. “That’s for the whole world. That would be amazing if the whole world was free and happy. I love life. Free and happy,” he said.

Gronkowski was also asked about the retirement rumors, and he just said he needed more time for himself. “I was seeing how I was recovering, how my body was feeling. Taking a little break mentally and physically from the game. Just seeing how I felt and seeing if I wanted to do it another year and if I was able to endure another season. That was the main thing. I feel like I’m ready to go, physically and mentally,” he said.

Well, there you go.
