Gronk is one of the greatest to ever play the position — he had 621 catches for 9,286 yards and 92 touchdowns over the course of 11 seasons … nine in New England and two with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
He holds several position records … including most touchdowns in a season (17), most 100-yard receiving games (32), most postseason TDs (12), and more.
Gronk won four Super Bowls in his career … three with the Pats and one with Tom Brady in Tampa.
His last season was in 2021 … but for some reason, he’s waited until now to stick a fork in it.
The retirement means he’s now starting the clock for his trip to Canton … as he’s as much of a lock for the Hall of Fame as you can get.
Forget a mic drop … we need one last Gronk spike!!
