Gronkowski returned from retirement in 2020 after the Patriots traded him to Tampa Bay. He wanted to avoid joining an AFC East rival, and Florida also made it easier to spend time with his mother. The Buccaneers improved from a 7–9 record in 2019 to 11–5 in their first season with Gronkowski and Brady, then defeated the Kansas City Chiefs 31–9 in Super Bowl LV. Gronkowski caught six passes for 67 yards and two touchdowns in the championship game.
### Key Takeaways
– Gronkowski has no regrets about leaving New England for Tampa Bay.
– Reuniting with Brady, avoiding a Patriots rival, and being near family helped shape his decision.
– He spent two seasons with the Buccaneers and won another Super Bowl, bringing his career total to four championships.
