"I'm gonna call him right now," the Hall-of-Fame linebacker said on CBS Sports. "I need to pray for him. Me and him got to do some therapy."

Edelman's Patriots, who finished 10-7 on the year, are set to take on the Buffalo Bills in the Wild Card round Saturday night. Kickoff is set for 8:15 p.m. ET at Highmark Stadium.
