After briefly retiring in 2019, Rob Gronkowski came out of his retirement in Tampa Bay with Tom Brady and won another Super Bowl. But now Gronkowski is officially coming home. The legendary tight end announced he’ll sign a one-day contract to retire as a New England Patriot this November, closing the book where it all began. This move isn’t just about football…it’s also a heartfelt tribute to his late friend Susan Hurley, the beloved Massachusetts philanthropist, who always wanted Gronk to retire as a Patriot. But it appears that the decision makers wanted a little for themselves as well. “How about a 2-day contract?” Patriots CEO Robert Kraft said in a contract-signing. To this Gronkowski also joined to party as he replied jockingly, “What’s the signing bonus?” (This is a developing story…) 

Robert Kraft wants Rob Gronkowski to play a little more for his team for the upcoming game against the Jets.
