FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — After 11 seasons, New England Patriots star wide receiver Julian Edelman is no longer with the team, according to reports.
Ian Rapoport of NFL Network said in a Tweet Monday afternoon that according to wire reports, the Patriots terminated Edelman's contact, listing the reason as a "failed physical."
Mike Reiss, an ESPN reporter covering the Patriots, also said in a Tweet Monday that Edelman showed up on Monday's transaction wire "as having his contract terminated by the Patriots."
"Edelman has been mulling retirement and this could just be a precursor to that announcement," Reiss continued.
