Wow. They sure picked his pocket.

What plays were they even for? Can’t recall.
 
Wow that’s a lot

Was one of them for when he called fair catch and then blocked? Just a guess

Guessing that is one of them. That one drew a flag during the game
 
One or two of these must be ones that were noticed post game? I only remember one roughness call on him...

I thought that was just for an illegal block. Edelman often beats the sh it out of DBs when he's blocking. That block was very mild by his standards.

Right, but it’s illegal to call fair catch and then block. It’s a somewhat dirty play in the sense that it’s not legal for you to hit and then you hit someone that’s presumably playing the ball

I guess you’re saying it was just an illegal block rather than roughness, but I could see it being a fine-able offense if any of his hits are

It might be an automatic roughness call for that block by rule, no matter how mild. I honestly don't know.

Second time this year that he’s done that. REALLY stupid.
 
I think he head-butted a Bills player last week after fielding a punt.
 
WTF Edelman is a Patriot

I forgot the Patriots are on every **** list.

Go Pats
 
Considering how much his PED suspension cost him, he'd better start counting his pennies.

TWO of them, at least. Hence the escalated fines. He blocked after calling fair catch which, as others have said, is illegal.
 
Perhaps the NFL thinks that Edelman is “Generally Aware” of unnecessary roughness by another player
 
The Squirrel has his crazy moments. He has been doing this for years.
