While Edelman undoubtedly would love to continue catching passes from Brady, the wide receiver also is buddies with Sanders. The Patriots wideout might have just liked the idea of being compared to Scottie Pippen, jelly and sugar for all we know.
Or maybe Edelman wants to be traded to the Bucs. He’s under contract through the 2021 season and won’t hit free agency until 2022, so the Patriots would have to be willing to move him.
Edelman’s campaign to get Brady to stay in New England was unsuccessful. Brady hasn’t officially signed his contract with the Buccaneers, but things seem to be progressing between the two parties.
