Rob Gronkowski is hanging up his cleats for the second time. The NFL star took to Instagram on June 21 to announce some sad news to Tampa Bay fans. His post included two images where he rocked a Tampa Bay Buccaneers jersey. He accompanied the post with a lengthy caption. To begin, Gronkowski explained to fans how it had always been his dream to play professional football, and he wrote those dreams down in a school assignment. “I wrote that I wanted to play in Tampa for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, for many reasons, the sunny weather being #1,” he explained. “I completely forgot about writing this report until 2 years ago when I had the opportunity to join the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.”
Gronkowski added that his time playing football in Florida “has blown away what I originally wrote about in college.” Of course, Gronk also thanked the organization for all they did for him, as he said he “gave it everything” he had when he played there. “The friendships and relationships I have made will last forever,” he continued. Gronk also said he doesn’t know what’s next but gave a nod to his former team, saying he may sail “the seas, Arghhhhhh!!”
Several fans and loved ones took to the post to comment, including Gronk’s girlfriend, model Camille Kostek. “I’m always proud of you,” she wrote. “Some of the best years of my life have been cheering on and off the field for you!” How adorbs.
