Not only did Tom Brady take the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to the Super Bowl in his first season away from the New England Patriots, but he did so with Rob Gronkowski at tight end, luring the future Hall of Famer out of retirement after he forced through a trade to Tampa Bay.
While Gronkowski hasn’t had his most productive season, he’s been a serviceable starting tight end, which is something Bill Belichick and Josh McDaniels lacked this season.
