Rob Gronkowski May Be Contemplating Retirement

MINNEAPOLIS, MN — Rob Gronkowski may be considering retirement, according to a report from ProFootballTalk and a series of non-answers from the tight end following the Super Bowl.

Murmurs of a possible Gronkowski retirement began Sunday afternoon when ProFootballTalk tweeted, "This is 99-percent wild guess but it would not shock me at all if Gronk retires after tonight's game."

After the game, Gronkowski was asked about the possibility that he'll hang up his cleats.

"I don't know how you heard that but I'm definitely gonna look at my future for sure. I'm going to sit down the next couple of weeks and see where I'm at," Gronkowski said.

When he was asked what would make him retire, Gronkowski replied, "I'm not ready for these types of questions right now. I'm going to sit down and reflect on my season."

Gronkowski was one of three Patriots receivers to have over 100 yards through the air Sunday night. He had 116 yards and two touchdowns on nine catches.
