Tom Brady wishes Rob Gronkowski was playing alongside him on the field

On Mondays episode of the Lets Go podcast with sportscaster Jim Gray in advance of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers game against the Dallas Cowboys, Tom Brady and Rob Gronkowski were once again trading jabs as they used to

After the tight end spent the entire 2022 regular season retired, Brady told Gray he was looking forward to having Gronkowski on the show According to him, playing alongside Gronkowski against the Cowboys at Raymond James Stadium would be preferable

Even though I love having him on the show, Brady said, Id much rather have him on the field with me Because of this, Im a little irritated with him for joining me on the show on a Monday morning but not on the field on Monday night But Ill move past it

Brady claimed that since March, there have been numerous attempts to reunite Gronkowski with the Buccaneers The tight end claimed to Fox News Digital last week that he simply lacked the motivation to play football once more

Brady questioned whether Gronkowski would have enough time to travel to Tampa for a physical and to get dressed when he joined the programme

Im going to forego the physical if I arrive down there and am prepared to play tonight said the former New England Patriots and Buccaneers star Ill simply flex You like those guns Ill ask as soon as I enter the room They will then respond, Yes, I do

passed the medical exam ’ Check that box, and Im ready to go And Ive been running a little bit, if I had to dress up nothing wacky I have not at all run any football routes never managed to catch a football Do you think you could get as many plays out of me tonight if I just showed up, put on my pads, and played

Brady said he thought he could get about 20 plays out of Gronkowski if he did in fact play

I believe I could also pull that off About 15 to 20 I think I could pull it off I mean, the footballs velocity needs to slow down a little bit because every time I return, the first pass you always throw my way feels like its going 200 mph, and Im still getting used to that So, lets get that first pass out of the way during warm-ups So that I dont get exhausted, Ill do maybe three warm-ups then between 15 and 20 plays I believe I can succeed

Gronkowski left the NFL following the 2021 season He admitted to Fox News Digital that he disregarded the calls and texts he received pleading with him to play Sure, man I merely sort of ignore them said he You know I laugh I reply with some humorous, but also very humble, things Being in that circumstance, where you are still wanted, is very cool In the NFL, you typically get chewed up and immediately ejected Its cool to be in that situation because you get spit up and spit out
