‘He’s everything you could ask for as a player’: Tom Brady, Rob Gronkowski comment on their relationships with Bill Belichick

As Tom Brady and Rob Gronkowski prepare for their first Super Bowl without the Patriots, it’s hard not to reminisce about the past.

The two took part in Super Bowl “Opening Night”, the unofficial kickoff to Super Bowl week, on Monday, and they both fielded questions about their former coach, Bill Belichick.

Brady was asked what his “message” to Belichick would be. The now Buccaneers quarterback didn’t trash his former coach, opting to say how “grateful” he was for him.

“I have a great relationship with him,” Brady said. “I’m just incredibly grateful for what he’s meant in my life as a coach.
