The future Hall of Fame tight end hasn't played this season and has hinted that he has retired, but reports suggest that he could be gearing up for a second return to the NFL next season.The Raiders could have had Gronkowski and Brady when the quarterback left the Patriots to join the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2020. UFC president Dana White claimed that he was pushing the quarterback to sign for the Raiders, but he wound up in Tampa:"I was hammering him to come to Vegas. I was firing texts to him and he sent very cryptic text messages. He had me thinking he wasn't going to retire. So, you know what I was doing? I was hammering him to come to Vegas and play for the Raiders."Josh McDaniels' presence as head coach could also implore Brady to consider joining the Raiders. The two worked closely for 13 seasons in New England and won four rings. A Brady, Gronkowski, and McDaniels reunion could be on the cards.
