Wide receiver Julian Edelman, who made a free agent visit to the New York Giants recently, has opted to return to the New England Patriots, where he spent the first four years of his NFL career.
Edelman, who has 69 career receptions, would have been a nice addition to the Giants' receiving corps, probably providing competition for Jerrel Jernigan as the backup slot receiver for Victor Cruz. The fact that he is going back to New England, reportedly on a one-year deal, can't really be considered a surprise. Or, really, a loss for the Giants.
