Former Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski said that physically he feels like he could return to the NFL, but he doesn't think he could do it mentally.
"Physically, I can do it. Mentally, desire-wise, I can't," Gronkowski said during a press conference Tuesday morning, adding that if that changes, he'll go back to playing. "That'll be the time. It may be never. But you know me."
The recently-retired three-time Super Bowl champion added that he does not see himself coming out of retirement any time in the "foreseeable future."
"It could be the case in six months, it could be the case in two years, it could be in three years," Gronkowski said.
