Julian Edelman is going to Disney World!

The New England Patriots wide receiver was named MVP of Super Bowl LIII after catching 10 passes for 141 yards in the 13-3 win against the Los Angeles Rams.

In a game with very few standout offensive performers, Edelman almost single-handedly kept the Patriots moving with eight first-down grabs.

It was a historic playoff run for the 32-year-old. He moved into second place in the NFL's all-time postseason receiving yards list during the AFC title game, behind only the legendary Jerry Rice.

Edelman missed the 2017 season with a torn ACL and sat out the first four games of this season due to a suspension for performance-enhancing drugs.
