Julian Edelman Reveals Tom Brady Tried to Lure Him to the Buccaneers
Julian Edelman and Tom Brady: A Patriots Connection
In a fascinating revelation, Julian Edelman shared how Tom Brady, upon his move to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, attempted to bring him into the fold. During a video on Brady's YouTube channel, the legendary quarterback confessed to calling Edelman, saying, 'He rejected me.'
This amusing exchange highlighted their close bond from their successful days with the New England Patriots, where they clinched three Super Bowl titles. It certainly begs the question of what could have happened had Edelman accepted Brady's invitation.
The Timing of the Call
While the specific date of Brady's proposal remains unclear, it likely occurred during the first two seasons of the trio in Tampa Bay. Brady would have benefited greatly from Edelman's skill set, particularly in the 2021 season when the Buccaneers fell short in the divisional round.
Rob Gronkowski: The Exception
Interestingly, another former Patriot, Rob Gronkowski, did join Brady in Tampa, contributing to yet another Super Bowl victory.
