It has been built up as one of the biggest grudge matches. Tom Brady and his Tampa Bay Buccaneers travel to face the New England Patriots at Foxborough in Week 4.

The matchup is the first time Brady and Bill Belichick will face off since the quarterback was essentially shown the door and left for the sunny Tampa weather.

Like the entire NFL community, former Patriots wide receiver and Brady’s go-to guy Julien Edelman cannot wait to see the Week 4 clash. It will see Brady return to the stadium he helped make a fortress for over a decade.

Edelman gives his thoughts on Brady’s return to New England

Edelman was one of Brady’s favorite receivers during his 11-year stint in Boston. Speaking via zoom to reporters on Thursday, Edelman was asked about the upcoming grudge match. Edelman told reporters on Thursday:

The ex-Patriot was then asked how he thought the game would go. Given his current job as an analyst for Inside the NFL on Showtime, his answer left him sitting on the fence a little.

Edelman said:

The Patriots will honor their star receiver’s contributions during his time in New England. They have prepared a ceremony during halftime against the New Orleans Saints. Edelman then finished up by stating that he is unsure if he will be at Gillette Stadium when Brady rolls into town.

It is shaping up to be an intriguing contest as Brady goes head-to-head with Mac Jones on Sunday Night Football.
