Julian Edelman is a Patriots Hall of Famer.

The Patriots Hall of Fame on Monday announced Edelman as the 37th member of the legendary group. Edelman is a first-ballot inductee after he won the fan vote over fellow finalists Adam Vinatieri and Logan Mankins. The longtime receiver will join former Patriots head coach Bill Parcells in the 2025 class.

β€œHonored and grateful #FoxboroForever,” Edelman posted to X.

The social media message accompanied a video of his father, Frank, learning about his son’s recognition.

A converted college quarterback who was selected in the seventh round of the 2009 NFL Draft, Edelman spent all 12 of his NFL seasons in New England. He was among the most pivotal Patriots during the second half of the team’s dynasty era, and retired a three-time Super Bowl champion and Super Bowl LIII MVP.
