Here’s Cam Newton’s Solid Nickname For Patriots Wideout Julian Edelman

Is this better or worse than Newton's nickname for N'Keal Harry?

When Cam Newton last week revealed his nickname for New England Patriots wideout N’Keal Harry, few knew what to make of it. Not only is the moniker somewhat vague, but Newton’s explanation left much to interpretation.

Well, Newton’s nickname for Julian is much more straightforward, thankfully.

“Highway 11,” Edelman revealed Friday during an appearance on 93.7 WEEI’s “The Greg Hill Show.”

Honestly, we like it. It probably is too late in Edelman’s career for fans to refer to him as anything other than “Jules” or simply “Edelman,” but “Highway 11” still is a solid nickname.
