Former New England Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman has accused former teammate Wes Welker of making up stories about his time under Bill Belichick.
In the latest episodes of Edelman's 'Games with Names' podcast, the 37-year-old discussed Apple TV+'s documentary 'The Dynasty: New England Patriots' alongside fellow Patriot and future Hall-of-Fame special teamer Matthew Slater.
The discussion turned to the documentary's portrayal of ex-tight end Aaron Hernandez - with Edelman alleging that Welker lied about the coach's relationship with the player who would go on to be convicted of murder.
'Welker's out here saying like Aaron Hernandez got away with murder — figuratively speaking — at practice; that's not even true,' Edelman said.
'Welker painted the picture he [Hernandez] was like the king, like he got to do anything.
