Pats had hilariously little leverage.
“If the Patriots wanted to play hardball, he could have signed his papers to unretire and eaten up $10 million against the Pats’ salary cap until a trade materialized. Gronk is due to earn a $9 million base salary, $250,000 offseason workout bonus and $750,000 in per-game roster bonuses in 2020.
That would have been problematic since the Patriots only have about $1 million in cap space....”
