EDIT: Timeline below.

4. Tom’s agent, dad, Arians, and Licht all say Tom hasn’t decided yet.
5. Ian Rappaport says many sources confirm Tom plans to retire but the pushback is due to timing.

Nevermind the HARD AND FAST Rule of "Just Say No To Ex-Cheatriot Fuckbags", you'd have to release at least one of the following with a washed up, obviously not giving a fuck about football any longer Douche Bucket Gronkowski.
Blake Bell Who has not missed a game all year long. Who's value is probably worth it for QB sneaks alone nevermind the other things he does well.
Noah Gray Who came in as a scrawny Buttkicker-looking motherfucker who dropped a pissload of passes and grew into a guy that took 20% of the snaps in a win or go home, critical tight ballgame. I don't want to quit on that guy just yet.
Jody Fortson Who appeared to be the most explosive Non-Kelce TE on the roster before jamming up his achilles. Who knows where he ends up, but I'll roll with the dude that absolutely bought in, switched positions, and worked his ever loving ass off to stay a Chief.
I'll roll with our guys unless they want to bring a younger talented guy in.

And remember kids...
JUST SAY NO TO EX-CHEATRIOT FUCKBAGS.
We don’t need any cap tied up in aging talent at TE.
I’m completely fine with drafting another one in the mid to late rounds. Might hit a home run on one and land Kelce’s future replacement. Maybe Gray is that guy already.
Minimal investment at that position until Kelce shows a decline. [Reply]
Sounds like he "retired" because of tensions with Arians. While Arians was dealing with that Achilles injury Leftwich and Brady would work on the gameplan during the week. Arians would come in late and red pen it which got them irritated at him. [Reply]
