5 most iconic Rob Gronkowski - Tom Brady TDs of all-time
Rob Gronkowski has officially retired from his legendary career, in the 2022 NFL offseason. This is the second time he has announced that he is calling it a day, with the first coming when he was with the New England Patriots following the 2018 NFL season.
He took a year off before joining Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers prior to the start of the 2020 NFL season.
Rob Gronkowski and Tom Brady have combined to become one of the greatest duos in NFL history. They have crafted many memorable moments while winning four Super Bowl rings together. Here are five of the most iconic touchdowns they have hooked up for over the years.
#5 - 2022 NFL Playoffs - Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs. Philadelphia Eagles
Rob Gronkowski has the second-most postseason receiving touchdowns in NFL history, trailing only the great Jerry Rice. It only seems appropriate that his 15th and final one makes the list of most iconic touchdowns.
During the third quarter of a game during the 2022 NFL Playoffs against the Philadelphia Eagles, Brady found Gronkowski up the seam for an easy touchdown pass. The play increased the lead to 24-0 and pretty much sealed the victory for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
#4 - 2015 AFC Championship Game - New England Patriots vs. Denver Broncos
The New England Patriots trailed the Denver Broncos by eight points late in the fourth quarter of the 2015 AFC Championship Game. Tom Brady had one last drive to try and tie the game, but was facing a critical fourth down.
Tom Brady found Rob Gronkowski down the middle of the field for a 40-yard game-saving completion. The duo followed that up by connecting for a touchdown pass a couple of plays later, taking over the game together as they did so many times during their connected careers.
