The league’s best blocking tight end plans on returning to the NFL in 2021.
The source? Well, none other than Rob Gronkowski himself, of course.
This was never really in question, but it’s always nice to receive confirmation from the actual source. Gronk made his 2021 intentions clear to TMZ during an interview on Wednesday.
“Even if we didn’t win it all, I’ll tell you this: I was coming back to play football again this year because I had a blast last year. I love the game.”
Gronkowski not only told TMZ that he’s back, but he also explained how he just finished four straight workouts that are prepping him for another year in the NFL. So, not only did he confirm he’s returning to the league, but he doubled-down on the declaration.
Whether or not he returns to the Bucs remain to be seen, but it’s safe to assume the odds of him donning pewter and red for a second straight year are exceptionally good.
“Just look at the team that we have. We just have so much talent at every position. The guys were all great guys. And let me tell you, there was no one that was selfish on our team. And that’s what helped us win a championship, man…
That’s what made us great, you know? No one cared. Everyone just wanted to do what they needed to do.”
I don’t know about y’all, but that quote just screams ‘reunion’.
You heard the man, Tampa Bay. Sign him up. Every Bucs fan needs more tuddies in their life.
