Patriots Screwed!

Post by SuperHornet »

Do-everything WR Julian Edelman has retired after failing his physical. This effectively kills recent speculation that Edelman might jump to TB to rejoin Brady and Gronk after the Patriots terminated his contract last week....

I believe there is a financial benefit to him retiring after a failed physical. The Patriots might have been doing him a solid.

Would he get that after being released? I could see it had he retired post-physical, pre-release....

OK, 88. I could see a CBA preventing a guy from getting screwed. Similar things have happened before, right?

It's the way the Patriots terminated his contract that allows him to access that CBA benefit.
