“I’m back, man!” Gronk told us. “I will be back playing football, man. I love the game of football. I loved playing last year. I had a great time.”
Gronk wasted no time with free agency kicking off this week … agreeing to a 1-year, $10 milli deal on Monday.
Rob was solid in 2020 — his first season back since leaving the game in 2018 — putting up more than 600 yards and 7 TDs.
Oh yeah, and the guy won his 4th Super Bowl. Not too shabby.
Gronk reacted to the news with a nod to the SpongeBob SquarePants pirate … saying, “Arrr You Ready Kids??”
Somewhere, Brady is saying “aye, aye, captain!!”
