Tom Brady and Rob Gronkowski are headed to yet another Super Bowl, except this time they won't be wearing New England Patriots uniforms as they are set for their first appearance in the NFC with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
The talented duo for the Buccaneers teamed up in the offseason, and nobody is happier to be back in the big game than Brady and Gronk.
Gronkowski came out of retirement to join Brady and the Buccaneers, and he had some interesting comments about the difference between Bill Belichick and Tampa Bay head coach Bruce Arians.
“Coming here, it’s is a complete 180, for sure, totally different,” Gronk said in SiriusXM NFL Radio (per Pro Football Talk). “I mean, I feel like the biggest difference is just having the freedom of being yourself in this organization.”
It shouldn't be a complete surprise, however, as Belichick and the Patriots organization does things their way. For what it's worth, it worked well for the team as they became a dynasty and a fixture for championships over the past 20 years.
For Rob Gronkowski though, he enjoys having more freedom–even though his numbers dipped significantly since heading to Florida. Regardless, the ultimate goal has always been another Lombardi Trophy with him and Tom.
Gronkowski had just 45 catches for 623 yards and seven scores in his first season in Tampa Bay, just a year after announcing his retirement and not playing for the entire 2019 season.
The Buccaneers are set to take on the Kansas City Chiefs on Super Bowl Sunday in Tampa Bay. They are the first team in history to play the game in their home stadium.
