Tampa Bay Buccaneers have had some legends play on their team. Players like Tom Brady and Rob Gronkowski left behind a legacy that people will talk about for years to come. However, the duo has put in the work, they’ve climbed the mountain and now, they’ve earned their fun. Individually, they’ve both been enjoying their retirement. Brady has been taking to Instagram to share how much fun he’s been having. The duo took it to the next level with a recent celebration.

Gronk took to Instagram to share an amazing celebration that he shared with Brady and another ex-teammate of his. He shared what looked like a lively celebration that involved some good-old fashion football fun. With such a celebration going viral on Instagram, one question lingers in the fans’ minds: Has Brady ‘retired for good’?

With Tom Brady, retirement never seems certain. Even the last time he announced his retirement, it took him 40 days to come back. Interestingly, his return followed one of the most turbulent years Brady has ever had. He went through a huge FTX scandal, a divorce that ended 13 years of marriage, as well as a disappointing season with Tampa Bay. After such a year, Brady decided to announce his ‘final’ retirement. However, everyone was skeptical of it, and understandably so. Therefore, Gronk’s post came as a fresh welcome for all Brady fans.
