Gronk Retiring Again
Some bad news for the Bucs as future Hall of Fame tight end Rob Gronkowski announced this month he will be re-retiring after 11 seasons.
"In college, I was asked to write about a dream job opportunity that I wanted to pursue and where the location would be," Gronk wrote on Instagram.
The good news is that Tom Brady came out of a brief retirement to announce he'll continue playing with the Bucs.
Bucs May Pursue Pro Bowl Tight End
Replacing Gronk won't be easy but there were reports June 28 that the Buccaneers may be pursuing Pro Bowlers like Kyle Rudolf, Jared Cook, and Jimmy Graham, each of whom are free agents.
The Steelers Eric Ebron has been named. He amassed 351 receptions, 3,837 yards, and 33 touchdowns over his eight year NFL career. We would be remiss in not mentioning that Ebron had a poor season last year.
10 Reasons the Cowboys Will Be a Dumpster Fire This Season
Take this one with a grain of salt as it is coming from PhillyVoice. Nonetheless these are still some good observations.
Among them: Mike McCarthy is still the head coach (check), the wide receivers are no longer a strength (Amari Cooper is gone), the offensive line is no longer a strenght (mostly aging or injury-riddled over the years with some departures as well), and it's all on Dak this year for the first time in his career (maybe).
