The New England Patriots may have the door open for a Rob Gronkowski return, but that doesn't mean Tom Brady expects the retired tight end to come back.
"I am really good friends with Gronk. We have had a great relationship for 10 years," Brady said Monday on WEEI's Greg Hill Show. "Just because things are reported doesn't necessarily mean they are always true, just for the record. … I don't know. Those are conversations I am not privy to."
Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported Patriots owner Robert Kraft told Gronkowski in March that he wants him to return for November, December and a playoff run.
