New England fans have voted former wide receiver Julian Edelman into the Patriots Hall of Fame.

Edelman, 38, won three Super Bowls and spent his entire NFL career with the Patriots (2009-16, 2018-20).

Drafted in the seventh round out of Kent State in 2009, he converted from college quarterback to receiver and retired with 620 catches for 6,822 yards and 36 touchdowns in 137 games (85 starts).

Edelman ranks second in Patriots history in receptions behind Wes Welker (672). He is fourth in receiving yards and ninth in touchdown catches.

“Julian Edelman is one of the great success stories in our franchise’s history,” owner Robert Kraft said in a statement. “There aren’t many players who earn an NFL roster spot at a position they have never played before. Julian not only did that as a seventh-round draft selection, but he finished his career with the second-most receptions in franchise history (620) and as a three-time Super Bowl champion, including his last as Super Bowl MVP.

“No one was more committed to his craft and honing his skills than Jules. His explosiveness off the line, quickness in his cuts and elusiveness after the catch made him one of the hardest players to defend. His clutch catches in our biggest games and overall toughness made him a fan favorite.”

Edelman also rushed 58 times for 413 yards and completed 6 of 6 passes for 128 yards and one touchdown.

Edelman was named the MVP of Super Bowl LIII after catching 10 passes for 141 yards in a 13-3 win against the Los Angeles Rams.

This was Edelman’s first year of eligibility for the team’s Hall of Fame, which requires a player to be retired for at least four seasons.

Edelman was a finalist for the 2025 induction class along with kicker Adam Vinatieri and offensive lineman Logan Mankins.
