Rob Gronkowski says he's 'not ready to commit' to another football season

Free-agent tight end Rob Gronkowski once said he'd never play without Tom Brady as his quarterback, but even though Brady has unretired to rejoin the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Gronkowski says he's not sure if he'll play this season.

"Right now, I'm not ready to get back out on that field," Gronkowski told TMZ Sports. "I'm not ready to commit to the game of football right now."

The four-time All-Pro had 55 catches for 802 yards with six touchdowns in his second season with the Bucs, despite missing five games because of back spasms, cracked ribs and a punctured lung.
