Patriots placed Julian Edelman (broken foot) on injured reserve, ending his season.
CBS Boston confirms the injury as a broken foot. The Pats have already used their "designated for return" spot on Visanthe Shiancoe. Edelman had been an underrated playmaker when healthy this season. He was second in the NFL with a 15.5 average on punt returns and had scored long touchdowns through the air, on a punt, and on a fumble return in the past three weeks alone while also breaking off a 47-yard run. Brandon Lloyd, a disappointment to date, will have to step up on offense with Edelman out of the lineup. Due to hit free agency in 2013, Edelman could see his market value take a dip with yet another injury.
