NFL legend Rob Gronkowski 'considering' return to league: report

According to a new report, "Gronk" is considering yet another return to the league. 

Lammey notes that Gronkowski "loves Denver & QB Bo Nix," while also pointing out his connection with head coach Sean Payton, who worked at Fox Sports with the legendary tight end before heading back into coaching. 

Fox News Digital has not heard back from Gronkowski's agent, Drew Rosenhaus, after an initial request for comment. 

"I might as well go back because playing ball would be easier than what I've been doing over the last six months," Gronkowski said. 

Gronkowski went on to play one more season with the Bucs until retiring again after the 2021 season. 

Now, Gronkowski has previously said to outlets, including Fox News Digital, that he was definitely retired, even mentioning that he was "washed up."

But perhaps that itch for the game is back for one of the best to ever play the tight end position.

He is third all-time among tight ends in receiving touchdowns (92), and has 9,286 yards on 621 career receptions over 143 games in his 11 NFL seasons.
