Day 37 of the quarantine and we have wild rumors circulating from a dog account on Twitter. Whatever the case might be, rumors began to swirl that retired NFL tight end Rob Gronkowski would come out of retirement for the 2020 season to play for the Bucs.
It started here:
The 30-year-old did not play in the 2019 season, but his name continuously came up that he would come back eventually.
That rumor from the Twitter account belonging to PFT Commenter of Barstool Sports got so big that Gronkowski took to Instagram Live and actually addressed it on Wednesday.
Bucs GM Jason Licht was asked about Gronkowski earlier in the week.

“Well he’s doing a pretty good job in WrestleMania right now,” Licht told Jenna Laine of ESPN. “I have no idea if he’d want to play.”
