Julian Edelman decided to reconnect with his Golden State roots Wednesday night. Fresh off the Patriots’ historic Super Bowl victory, the wide receiver spent time backstage with the California-bred Red Hot Chili Peppers at their TD Garden show.
Edelman shared an Instagram photo with the Chili Peppers’ bassist, Flea:
“#respect been killin it for a long time. #underthebridge has helped me get out of low places,” Edelman captioned his post.
The Chili Peppers, who played the Super Bowl halftime show with Bruno Mars in 2014, shared a similar picture on their Instagram.
