Julian Edelman has recently made headlines for a recent arrest, now he is making headlines for his talent on the field. New England has been struck with many injuries on their defense this season and Belichick has been running out of replacements. That's where Julian Edelman comes in.
During the Patriots-Eagles game November 27, 2011, Edelman was on the field as a wide receiver, kick returner, and a defensive back. He is stepping up and doing whatever is asked of him. Edelman is surfacing as the Patriots' utility man, working hard and spending extra time with Josh Boyer, the defensive backs coach, to understand what he needs to do. In the game on Sunday, Edelman made some crucial tackles, including one tackle on Vince Young to save a touchdown.
Edelman is making quite the impact for the Patriots this season, it will be interesting to see how his versatility progresses.
