Cam Newton Provides Health Update On Julian Edelman

For the past three weeks the New England Patriots have been without leading wide receiver Julian Edelman as he continues his rehabilitation from a procedure on his knee that placed him on injured reserve.

His quarterback, Cam Newton, shared a positive update on his health Monday, but without any specifics.

“I can confirm he’s getting better,” Newton said on WEEI’s “Greg Hill Show” Monday morning. “He’s doing well. For him to be everything that he is, and I know he may be listening or he may be having his people listen, he’s good, man.”

“Just to see him in good spirits and knowing that we’re doing our job as a team so when he comes back, it’s evident that he’ll have help at that position.
