The four-time Super Bowl champion tight end spiked rumors of a football comeback that emerged at the NFL combine on Tuesday. Fox Sports reported Wednesday that Gronkowski had no interest in making a return.
‘Crazy bro,’ the tight end said, according to Fox Sports. ‘They must know something about me that I don’t … I was just in Australia for a few days. Now it’s time to relax a little. No football.’
Gronkowski played in the NFL for 11 years: nine seasons with the Patriots before an initial retirement before the 2019 season, then two more with the Buccaneers after returning from that retirement one year later. The four-time All-Pro won a fourth Super Bowl with quarterback Tom Brady in the 2020 season, then retired for a second time in 2022.
