The Walton-Penner family has been spending lavishly over the past to create a breakthrough inside the Broncos locker room. To revamp the coaching staff, the upper brass fired former head coach Nathaniel Hackett and acquired Sean Payton to replace him. Well, Payton has already assumed the office, he began his unique recruitment process and targeted his first prospect Rob Gronkowski back into the NFL.

His approach has been so different that the 59-year-old vowed to change the name of Denver Broncos to Denver Groncos. The G will signify Gronk’s presence in the team. Indeed, such tactics are essential to bringing back a star of his caliber who rose to prominence alongside one of the greatest quarterbacks of all time.

The social media handle of FOX News shared the above snippet among its followers. In the video, one could see Payton addressing a group and explaining his plans with a serious tone. He slashed the B and replaced it with a big G saying, “I’m working on changing our name to the Denver Groncos.”.

Interestingly, Payton also wants to see the veteran wearing a navy-blue suit and an appropriate orange tie. A hard bargain though especially looking at Gronk’s obsession with Brady.

Similarly, in the pre-show build-ups ahead of the Super Bowl LVII game, FOX studio fabricated another instance where Gronk and Payton were spotted talking to each other, and the head coach publicly asked the former athlete to pick a flight to Denver and lured him, giving an opportunity to complete his 100 touchdown passes.

In the current scenario, Gronk making a comeback seems very unlikely. Because Brady has already announced retirement for the second time in his career. Moreover, the tight end has almost accomplished everything. All those four Super Bowl rings along with other accolades shall remain untouched for a much longer time.

Sean Payton draws instant fan attention

Even if Gronk accepts the offer, it is hard to imagine him getting synced with Russell Wilson at the helm. His approach has been arguably different, and adjusting with a new quarterback at this point seems like a far-fetched dream. Anyways fans couldn’t get past this recruitment process and flooded social media with crazy reactions.
