What’s the deal with all these Rob Gronkowski comeback rumors?

It’s hard for fans of any sport to let go of their favorite players, but even more so when it’s regarding a Hall of Fame caliber player. That’s how many people who are invested in the New England Patriots feel when it comes to their beloved former tight end who wore No. 87 for nine years.

Rob Gronkowski has made it clear that he has no intentions of returning to the NFL this season after retiring from the game last March. He has, however, left the door ajar by saying if he gets that “burning passion” to return that he’d consider making a comeback.
