Retired Patriots WR Julian Edelman responds to Dolphins fan’s shot at him

Very natural reaction from the former wideout.

When former New England Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman was active, he played some of his best games against the Miami Dolphins. In fact, Edelman had his second-most receptions (76), most yards (951) and most touchdowns (six) against the team in South Florida.

With this knowledge, it’s only natural for Dolphins fans to feel some animosity toward the wideout, and even though he called it a career last offseason, Miami’s faithful still holds a bit of a grudge.

That was evident on Wednesday when a Twitter video went viral of a Dolphins fan that said that Edelman had the most punchable face in the league despite him being retired.

Edelman took some time to respond Wednesday night.

These rivalries between players and fans are part of the reason the NFL has been so fun to follow, especially the division bouts.
