Buccaneers Reveal Rob Gronkowski In Buccaneers Jersey For First Time
BOSTON (CBS) -- This week, the world finally saw what Tom Brady looked like in his Tampa Bay Buccaneers uniform. Now, everyone can see his partner in crime.
The Bucs, capitalizing on a rather quiet period in sports, hyped up the release of Gronkowski pictures on Thursday, albeit a bit more subtly than the day-long Brady hype train.

Gronk was pretty impressed with his new threads too.

What stands out as much as anything is that even though Gronk may have slimmed down a bit, he still looks plenty powerful as he aims to return to the football field after taking a year off.
Brady left a comment on the Bucs' Instagram post, writing "#skinnygronk" with a laughing emoji, seemingly finding humor in that storyline.

The Buccaneers linked to a gallery with 50 photos of Gronkowski, which is a lot of photos of Gronkowski. But, again, without much else happening in the world of sports, that counts as one of the more exciting developments of the day.
