I know that we've talked previously around the trade deadline a couple of months ago, but IF there were any chance whatsoever of any team having the capacity to bring him back for one final season, one would think that Brady/Belichick etc would be it.
Gonzalez recently spoke of the situation with Rob Gronkowski and how players need to avoid going low when tackling, so that's how I began to think more about it.
As we know and have heard many, many times before, Gonzalez is the ultimate joker TE (as Gruden reminded us on MNF a few days ago). He would bring a lot back to this offense, and we could also avoid having to rely on Gronkowski for obvious reasons, even if they are different players in terms of blocking, speed, etc.
Any chance at all that we could do this? Would there be any chance whatsoever? Belichick typically avoids going after higher priced FA's, but this may be a rare case where there would be mutual interest and the player's leadership and experience could warrant opening up the checkbook a bit more.
