Tom Brady Delivers Message After Rob Gronkowski Announces Retirement

Tom Brady and Rob Gronkowski spent a lot of time together, but the latter has just confirmed his retirement. Gronk has already retired once. He had enough time to recover and heal his body. Gronk partied hard and enjoyed his time off. Well, Brady left the New England Patriots to sign with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He inked a two-year deal with the Buccaneers and Gronk came out of his retirement to join his favorite quarterback.

No one was really surprised to see Brady and Gronkowski win a Super Bowl in their first season together. They did a wonderful job in New England and the success continued in Tampa Bay. The Buccaneers won a championship and the powerful duo had a huge impact on the game. Of course, Brady and Gronk didn’t make the Super Bowl last season, but both players did a good job.

TTom Brady honors Gronkowski after his retirement announcement

Gronk made a decision and it’s his final word. He will retire from the NFL and his goodbye message made fans cry. Brady heard the news and had an incredible reaction. His good friend and brother is retiring and the quarterback thought it would be nice to honor him.

“Love you as a man, teammate and friend,” Brady commented on Gronkowski’s farewell Instagram post. “One of a kind in every way.”

Gronk said his final goodbye and thanked everyone for their contribution.

He spent most of his career in New England, learning from the best. Gronk was lethal in the end zone and Bill Belichick was proud of his accomplishment.

The former Patriots tight end finished his career with 9.286 yards on 621 receptions and 92 touchdowns in 143 regular-season games. In his playoff games, Gronkowski hit 1,389 yards and 98 receptions for 15 touchdowns. He stacked these numbers in 22 playoff games.

New England struggled to find a replacement for Gronk. There’s no one like him. Hopefully, the tight end unit will look better in the upcoming season. Jonnu Smith didn’t make an impact in 2021, but NFL experts have high expectations from him in the upcoming season. When it comes to Gronkowski, he will probably spend the entire summer on a beach.
