Julian Edelman hung up his spikes in 2021 as one of the most beloved Patriots of all time.

The tenacious receiver played a key role in New England’s final three Super Bowls, serving as Tom Brady’s most dependable short-yardage receiver and making several critical plays on football’s highest stage.

But even with three Super Bowl titles, one Super Bowl MVP, and 620 career receptions on his resume, Edelman’s case for Canton remains murky.

Edelman was one of the greatest postseason performers in NFL history, as the Patriots wideout currently ranks third all-time in both postseason receptions (118) and receiving yards (1,442).
