Tom Brady and Julian Edelman have remained close since the former New England Patriots wide receiver left the NFL, which has given him many chances to make fun of his Hall of Fame quarterback friend.
In a recent interview with US Weekly, Edelman made lighthearted fun of Brady’s communication abilities, specifically his texting tendencies. Additionally, he implied that Brady frequently leaves messages on read without responding. Brady has not responded, but Edelman is positive he reads the notes. Julian said : “I think he’s a little too old for texting,””You know when you teach your grandparents how to text and stuff? Maybe that’s what it is.” “I know that he sees them.”
Brady appears to fit the mold of a tech-challenged retiree, at least in the opinion of his lifelong pal.
After retirement, Edelman likes getting back with Tom Brady and Gronk
Additionally, Edelman expressed his gratitude for collaborating with Brady and Rob Gronkowski on a number of post-retirement initiatives. “Very special,” Edelman said, comparing the event to their time together on the Patriots. Edelman has been motivated to advance his career by seeing Brady get ready for his new role as an NFL pundit and by seeing Gronkowski’s attitude to their podcast. Julian said : “Now that they’re both retired, it feels very similar to when we were back playing,” “It makes me want to be better at my work,”Â
Beyond the sentimentality, Edelman cherishes the knowledge he has gained from interacting with such motivated individuals. In addition to stressing the value of surrounding oneself with “great people that do fundamentally great and solid things,” he said that working with Brady and Gronkowski challenges him to improve himself.
