Kyle Rudolph Signs With Tampa Bay Bucs Filling Rob Gronkowski’s Spot

In the wake of Rob Gronkowski’s retirement, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have signed a new tight end for Tom Brady to look for on the field. Kyle Rudolph has signed a one year contract with the Bucs. Rudolph is an experienced player, starting out his career with 10 seasons on the Minnesota Vikings.

Rudolph played a short season with the New York Giants, but was still able to end the season with 26 catches for 257 yards. The 32 year old comes with impressive stats for his career. In his NFL career, Rudolph has 479 catches for 4,745 yards and 49 touchdowns.

The addition of Rudolph is exactly what the Bucs need for this season. Rudolph will be alongside veteran Cam Brate, and comes with a good mix of blocking and receiving ability.
