Tom Brady and Rob Gronkowski built an undeniable legacy with the New England Patriots, standing tall as one of the greatest dynamic duos in NFL history. Brady's presence at the latter's Hall of Fame ceremony garnered immense applause from those who attended.
Brady and Gronkowski played multiple years together on the Patriots and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, spending most of it with the latter. The latter played nine seasons with New England, helping Brady and the franchise win three Super Bowl titles.
Gronkowski earned universal acclaim as one of the best tight ends in league history and the best in franchise history. It was no question that Gronkowski was going to have his place in New England's Hall of Fame. The induction took place on Saturday, seeing many of Gronkowski's former teammates and coaches attend the special event.
It also made perfect sense for Brady to be present. Once it was clear that he was there, the people who attended gave him a loud ovation.
