Former New England Patriots Julian Edelman David Butler II-USA TODAY Sports

Julian Edelman sparked some “comeback” rumors after working out with Tom Brady recently.

Brady posted a video on social media Monday that showed him throwing passes at UCLA’s practice field to Edelman. Brady captioned the video by saying working out with Edelman was a great way to get some cardio work in.

Edelman raised even more eyebrows when he asked what people thought of his knee:

Edelman played for New England from 2009-2020 and retired after the 2020 season due to a knee injury. That is what led him to bring up the subject of his knee.

Ever since announcing his retirement almost a year ago, there have been rumors and speculation about whether Edelman would come out of retirement to play with Brady in Tampa Bay.

Keep in mind that Rob Gronkowski always said that if Edelman ever regained his health, he anticipated the receiver making an NFL return.

Could Brady convince Edelman to give it another go in 2022? We shall see.
