I wonder what's the rest of the story?
Lots of injuries, obviously took a step back in skills, already has the rings, and he is building entrepreneurial side well.
Give him a year out of the game like Witten. He'll have time to heal his aches and feel a lot better without the daily grind of NFL workouts. I anticipate him coming out of retirement because he misses the game and the payday, just like Witten. Time will tell.
I see Witten only lasting one season, if that. Same for Gronk when he comes out of retirement. Gronk may get two. We'll see.
Maybe. Like I said, we'll see. If he doesn't, he'll get into the HOF earlier. Depends on what his long term goals are, but people like him seem to miss the game once they are away from it. Not sure how he'd do as commentator. Not as good as Romo, I'm sure.gronk supposedly hasn't spent any of his nfl salary and when you read there are things he is wanting to do with his life.
gronk doesn't have the family or even a wife so you have a guy who is still fairly young, much smarter than most people give him credit, with money, and in almost every other facet of life he is still a young man.
i don't see him coming back

Like I said, I could possibly be wrong. He has reasons to stay out of the game, and he could have reasons to unretire at a later point. Maybe he's becoming disgruntled with the organization (as it appears may others have over the past year or two with grumblings that have emerged...you can google that, too), or maybe he's just too beat up to continue. Yes, Witten has been a more durable player. Maybe Gronk just isn't ready to do the work or endure the pain that the work requires at this point, but he might a year or two from now? I'm sure he'll feel like he can contribute at a later point, but he's not willing to go through that grind right now.gronk isn't say tim green who very much found a life outside of football in writing as well as being an attorney.
maybe it was things such as green being diagnosed with als and some of the other health problems of former players that will push gronk to find a life outside the game.
i don't see him doing the broadcasting and i do see him as a guy who finds life outside of the game and embraces it.
