Rob Gronkowski Takes a Shot at His Former Team

Rob Gronkowski has only played two seasons with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Yet it’s quite obvious Gronk is far more comfortable with the culture in Tampa. Gronk was on “Live With Jimmy Kimmel” where he spoke about the team’s bonus he received this past season. The team made a real effort to get Gronk his bonus. It worked out for him in the last game of the season.

As you can see in the clip below, Gronkowski used this as an opportunity to torch the Patriots, claiming that they’re a franchise who would purposely take players out of the game if they were close to such a bonus.

“I’ve seen that happen before. Not with the Patriots, though. They’ll probably pull you before you hit that bonus there,” Gronkowski said. “I shouldn’t have said that.”

The Patriots and Bill Belichick are notorious for being a certain type of way.  Which just so happens to be almost  the exact opposite of how Gronk rolls.

We’re sure Tom Brady approved of the comments given his feelings on his past employer as well.
