We reported earlier today that the current WWE 24/7 Champion is coming out of retirement and returning to the National Football League. Gronkowski was traded, along with a seventh-round pick, by the New England Patriots to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in exchange for a fourth-round pick in the 2020 Draft.
