Brady took to Twitter to ask his former tight end's availability in March.

"Hey Autograph family, we're one month away from my unofficial retirement party in Tampa on March 16th. Can't wait to celebrate with everyone from The Huddle.

"You down Rob Gronkowski? Going over the list now and think I can get you in…"

Autograph also has partnership with other well-known athletes such as Tiger Woods, Derek Jeter, Wayne Gretzky, Naomi Osaka, Tony Hawk and Simone Biles.

The seven-time Super Bowl winner then decided to make the offer more enticing when he posted a picture on his Instagram story of himself and Gronkowski running during what appeared to be their time playing for the Buccaneers. 

"A month out from our @autograph.io Huddle End of Season Party! You in @gronk? I promise I won't make you run any sprints," Brady wrote on the photograph.
