Rob Gronkowski might one day return to the NFL.
Or he might not.
Who really knows.
What we do know, however, is that he’s keeping the door open. The now-retired New England Patriots tight end made his big career announcement Tuesday, revealing his partnership with a CBD company. In his announcement, Gronk candidly discussed the pain football put him through and the loss of passion he ended up having for the game.
The 30-year-old made clear though that if he does regain that passion, he would entertain a return to football. Gronk also noted he physically feels healthy enough to play.
The whole announcement, chiefly the possibility of an NFL comeback, predictably sent folks into a frenzy on Twitter.

All that really matters is that Gronkowski lives a healthy life. Now, if he can do that whilst making a return to football, we’re sure Patriots fans won’t mind.
