Buccaneers latest move suggests Rob Gronkowski won t be teaming up with Tom Brady in 2022

NFC Divisional Playoffs - Los Angeles Rams v Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end stepped away from football for a second time and decided to retire. Gronkowski addressed his retirement via Instagram, where he thanked his teammates and coaches. “I want to thank the whole entire first-class Buccaneers organization for an amazing ride, trusting me to come back to play and help build a championship team. I will now be going back into my retirement home, walking away from football again with my head held high knowing I gave it everything I had, good or bad, every time I stepped out on the field." Gronk added: “The friendships and relationships I have made will last forever, and I appreciate every single one of my teammates and coaches for giving everything they had as well. From retirement, back to football and winning another championship and now back to chilling out, thank you to all.” The Buccaneers lost Gronkowski and OJ Howard in free agency as he signed with the Buffalo Bills. However, it looks like they've found their new number-one tight end. The Buccaneers signed tight-end Kyle Rudolph last night. ESPN's Adam Schefter broke the news. Schefter tweeted: "Kyle Rudolph chose to play in Tampa despite the fact that former Michigan QB Tom Brady told his new tight end that he can’t be his first read because he went to Notre Dame."
