NFL schedule 2021: Week 4 clash sees Tom Brady, Rob Gronkowski return to Massachusetts

The start of the NFL 2021 season is still a few months away but fans are eagerly anticipating the marquee clash of the season between the Bucs and the Pats on October 3. The Week 4 clash on NBC's "Sunday Night Football" will mark Brady's first meeting against the Patriots since he signed with the Bucs as a free agent last offseason, leaving behind the legacy he had built in New England, where he played 20 seasons and won six of his seven Super Bowl titles.

The night will also mark the return of Bucs tight end Rob Gronkowski, who played nine seasons in New England, winning three titles. Gronkowski, who turns 32 on Friday, retired after the 2018 season due to injuries before returning to play with Brady in Tampa Bay last season and winning his fourth ring. 

Brady will enter the 2021 NFL season just 1,154 yards behind Drew Brees for the NFL's career passing record. With the Pats game in Week 4, he could be in line to break the mark in his return to Foxborough. Meanwhile, the Patriots, with Cam Newton mostly under center, went 7-9 in 2020, missing the playoffs for the first time since the 2008 season.
