All signs have been pointing to a smooth recovery for Julian Edelman.
The Patriots wide receiver, who missed the entirety of last season due to a torn ACL, told reporters at Gillette Stadium “it’s been good” to be back on the field. Edelman was present for the team’s first day of mandatory minicamp Tuesday, after attending two weeks of voluntary OTAs.
“Any time you get to go out and see the fellas, play with them, talk with them, be in the huddle and look at guys, and participate in drills, that’s what you play the game for ultimately,” Edelman said.
