A year after playing just six games, Julian Edelman’s 2021 season is already in doubt.
According to the Boston Herald, Edelman is unsure to play this year due to a knee injury. Edelman, who was once a Super Bowl MVP, began his career with the New England Patriots in 2009. He was a key part of three championships in New England, but the 35-year-old’s career went into a downward spiral due to significant injuries.

The report says that surgery may temporarily relieve the broad recipient, but nothing can resolve the underlying issue. In October, Edelman had a procedure done to solve some problems, but he was never able to get back on the field, despite playing in some practices.

The Herald also reports that the knee could cause Edelman to play in one game, but is gone next time due to injury. The Patriots’ expansion has a $ 6.1 million cap this season, which means the team could separate from him, especially since he only has one year left.
Edelman had only 21 receptions for 315 meters in 2020.

New England signed wide receivers Nelson Agholor and Kendrick Bourne earlier this season, as well as close points Jonnu Smith and Hunter Henry, who could all be fantastic weapons for quarterback Cam Newton, who is also on a deal of one years has been brought back.
The Patriots missed the playoffs for the first time in 11 years, but they have a good chance of bouncing back in 2021 with the coronavirus pandemic no longer distracting, and a full season under Newton’s belt as the starting quarterback. .
