Former Tampa Bay Buccaneers and New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski has squashed talk of a return to the NFL by insisting he is “happily retired”.
The 33-year-old retired in June 2022 as a four-time Super Bowl winner but many expected Gronkowski to come out of retirement, like he has already done once before in his career in 2019 to play with pal Tom Brady at the Bucs. But after sitting out the 2022 season, Gronkowski has stated his intention to stay retired for good this time.
“There's no chance anymore,” Gronk told TMZ Sports on talk of an NFL comeback. “I'm happily retired."
