Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman fought through more than one injury during the final stretch of the 20-19 season.
Two weeks after the end of the Pats’ season 2019, Edelman has already undergone surgery to address one of his injuries.
ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported Tuesday that Edelman underwent a shoulder procedure last week, adding that the rehab is not expected to be lengthy and that the 33-year-old is expected to be ready for New England’s offseason program.
Edelman also dealt with a knee injury during the season, but there is no news about that injury at this point. Last season’s Super Bowl MVP played in every Patriots game this season, making 13 starts despite his injuries. Edelman finished the regular season 100 receptions for 1,117 yards and 6 touchdowns.
