Despite the 36-year-old's early exit, he was still able to haul in multiple passes from Brady.

Gronkowski played in the NFL from 2010 through 2021, spending every season of his career as teammates with the league's all-time leading passer. They won four Super Bowls together, as three came with the New England Patriots and one came with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Gronkowski's last season in the league occurred in 2021, capping off a stellar career.

He ranks No. 1 on New England's all-time touchdown catches leaderboard and sits at No. 2 on the team's all-time receiving list. Gronkowski signed a one-day contract to officially retire as a member of the Patriots in Nov. 2025.

Now, he serves as an NFL analyst for Fox Sports.
