Those who were targeting free agent tight end Rob Gronkowski may want to start looking elsewhere.
Per Lanae Brody, Gronkowski said if he does indeed decide to return to the NFL next season, “it would definitely be with the Bucs.”

Gronkowski had made it clear that he doesn’t want to play for any other QB other than Tom Brady. (Although, he seemed to flirt with the idea of playing with someone else earlier this offseason).
The two have enjoyed so much success over the course of their careers together. And at this point in both of their football lives, why switch up now?
