This is most notable since Bill Belichick is not a fan of paying players and rather prefers to create new stars. It is certainly a complement from one of the best coaches of all time for Edelman to get paid by the Patriots.
As for the present, Edelman is happily enjoying retirement with no second thoughts about returning to the football field. He still supports the Patriots and his best friend, Tom Brady, from afar.
