The New England Patriots cut wide receiver Julian Edelman Monday after a failed physical according to reports.
Edelman’s contract termination comes after a lengthy effort to improve the status of his injured knee which limited the 34-year-old to just six games last season.
The MVP of Super Bowl LIII, is expected to retire according to ESPN.
Julian Edelman is an ultimate story in hard work and development. A college QB turned WR with time spent at CB & punt returner.
He also has the second-most catches and yards in NFL postseason history.
