Julian Edelman retired from his NFL career in 2021 after spending 11 memorable seasons with the New England Patriots. Following his retirement, many fans have been wondering what’s next in store for the former NFL player.
While quite a few around the NFL have heard rumors of his possible return to the football field, others believe he may get into the entertainment industry in some way. While speaking on a recent episode of the Games with Names podcast, Shawn Michaels joined Julian Edelman and comedian Sam Morril as a guest.
“Are you kidding?! We took a punter for heaven’s sake! McAfee. And you, my friend, you know you are way more athletic than McAfee. So, are you kidding me? You’d be a piece of cake, babe.

“Oh, for sure! Coming from New England, you don’t have a chance. It doesn’t matter where you’re actually from, mister. As far as everyone’s concerned, you’re a New England Patriot, and that’s it. So they’ll boo you out of the building no matter where you go.”

Edelman spent his entire career as a wide receiver, so Michaels might be right on the money with that statement. Regardless, we will have to wait and see whether Edelman ever ends up joining WWE in the future.
