Julian Edelman is ready to attack

Someone who should benefit from Josh Gordon’s presence on offense is Julian Edelman. Edelman was relied upon a lot by Tom Brady. He’s Brady’s BFF both on and off the field.

With the addition of Josh Gordon, Edelman won’t have the pressure of the offense solely on his shoulders. Gordon should open up for space for Edelman

Edelman should have a great season even after missing the first 4 games of the season. He has already racked up 11 catches for 111 yards and a touchdown.

I expect Edelman to continue to gobble up the catches and end the season as the Patriots top receiver.

Josh Gordon has already made a big impact on the New England Patriots. He has added an entirely new aspect to the Patriots roster. Gordon and the Patriots seem like a match made in heaven.

Next. Josh Gordon isn’t going anywhere. dark

Hopefully, the New England Patriots offense will continue to score at a high rate and propel the Pats all the way to the Super Bowl.
