It’s a fun time now. The 2024 season ended with the Eagles‘ crushing victory over the Chiefs to win the Super Bowl. For the Patriots legends Rob Gronkowski and Julian Edelman, it was a fun sight. Their records were in danger, but nothing happened. So, they must be happy. Now, the Gronk is enjoying his time away from football.

Rob Gronkowski & Julian Edelman praises Eagles star after the Super Bowl win

In the final NFL on Fox show for the 2024 season, Julian Edelman posed for a photo with Michael Vick, who became the head coach of Norfolk State. But everyone was more interested in the Super Bowl victory as the Patriots receiver lost $50,000 on Eagles in the Super Bowl LVII in 2023.

However, Rob Gronkowski had assured him that the Birds’ O-line was capable of handling Chris Jones, George Karlaftis, and others. On February 9, that’s what happened in the Caesars Superdome in New Orleans. They even praised Saquon Barkley aka Quad Zilla.

Praising the former Giants player on February 10, Gronk said, “It shows how great of a player he really was, because when he was with the Giants, he really had absolutely zero help. He had no line. There really wasn’t any skilled players around him. He had no quarterback, and he still balled.” That’s what we saw this year as well. With the support of HC Nick Sirianni and QB Jalen Hurts, Barkley crossed 2,000 rushing yards.

Fans love both Patriots legends for their outspoken nature. And they would be eagerly waiting to hear some more stories. Be it of the game or their personal lives.
