This past Sunday, the New England Patriots beat the New York Giants by one point on a last second field goal kick from Stephen Gostowski. While the Patriots may have gotten a W in the win column, they took a huge loss in the first half of the game when Julian Edelman went down with a foot injury.
After the game, ESPN reported that Edelman would need to undergo surgery on a broken bone in his left foot and that he could miss somewhere in the range of 6-8 weeks.
This is a big loss for the Patriots because Edelman was Tom Brady’s leading pass catcher and his go-to guy when the quarterback found himself in a bind.
