FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) — Julian Edelman has made peace with the fact he won’t be playing football for the first four weeks of the regular season.
It won’t stop the veteran Patriots receiver from preparing like he will be on the field.
Edelman made several rounds of apologies to his team and fans following the four-game suspension handed down by the NFL for violating the league’s policy on performance enhancers. Now he says he plans to use what’s left of training camp to make sure his surgically repaired knee will be ready when he is able to return.
