While many critics point out that Brady won’t be able to win the Super Bowl in the upcoming season. The reason is his trustworthy tight end Rob Gronkowski won’t be playing by his side. But, the NFL legend Shannon Sharpe does not think the same. On the show ‘UNDISPUTED,’ Sharpe disagreed with the fact by making some valid reasons.

The 3x Lombardi Trophy winner on the show said“That man won three Super Bowls before you even know of Rob Gronkowski existed. And now, all of a sudden, he threw for 4000 yards a year that the Gronk retired, and he was in New England, and now, all of a sudden, you don’t think he can win without Gronk. Stop this.”

Well, it is known that Brady loves to throw the ball to the tight end position, but it is unnecessary that without Gronkowski, Brady won’t survive. For this season, the Buccaneers have four TEs included in their roster- Cameron Brate, Cade Otton, Ko Kieft, and Codey McElroy. Currently, Brate has the most favorable chance to be the No. 1 tight end for the Buccaneers after Gronk’s retirement.
