Julian Edelman Nicknames Dion Lewis ‘Jitterbug’ After 1984 Wham! Lyric
Tom Brady called it last month when he told reporters that New England Patriots running back Dion Lewis would become a cult hero by the end of the season.
Five weeks in, Lewis already has exceeded expectations, thanks to his slick moves and jaw-dropping jukes. So, clearly, the 5-foot-8 star needs a nickname.
Apparently, Lewis already has one though. Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman, who rose from nobody to cult hero to bonafide star himself, who revealed in a Reddit AMA what he calls Lewis.
In case you weren’t sure what Edelman was referring to, here’s the 1984 Wham! hit “Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go.”
Yeah, Jitterbug sounds about right.
