Regardless of what happens in Super Bowl LII, there’s a celebration awaiting Julian Edelman of the New England Patriots.
The longtime slot receiver will be inducted into the College of San Mateo Hall of Fame on Feb. 9. Edelman is scheduled to attend the event as part of an 18-member class that also includes Giants broadcaster Jon Miller.
Edelman tore an ACL during the preseason and will not play against the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday. But teammates say the two-time Super Bowl winner remains engaged in preparations. “He’s a huge inspiration to me and all of our teammates,” Patriots receiver Danny Amendola told reporters in Minnesota this week.
