Bill Belichick "Julian is the epitome of competitiveness, toughness, and the great things that are possible when someone is determined to achieve their goals."
Tom Brady "It's a privilege for me to play with someone as special as Julian."
The Super Bowl champion wide receiver for the New England Patriots shares his inspiring story of an underdog kid who was always doubted to becoming one of the most reliable and inspiring players in the NFL.
When the Patriots were down 28-3 in Super Bowl LI, there was at least one player who refused to believe they would lose Julian Edelman. And he said so. It wasn't only because of his belief in his teammates, led by the master of the comeback, his friend and quarterback Tom Brady - or the coaching staff run by the legendary Bill Belichick. It was also because he had been counted out in most of his life and career, and he had proved them all wrong.
Whether it was in Pop Warner football, where his Redwood City, California, team won a national championship; in high school, where he went from a four-foot-ten, 95-pound freshman running back to quarterback for an undefeated Woodside High team; or college, where he rewrote records at Kent State as a dual-threat quarterback, Edelman far exceeded everyone's expectations. Everyone's expectations, that is, except his own and those of his father, who took extreme and unorthodox measures to drive Edelman to quiet the doubters with ferocious competitiveness.
When he was drafted by the Patriots in the seventh round, the five-foot-ten college quarterback was asked to field punts and play wide receiver, though he'd never done either. But gradually, under the tutelage of a demanding coaching staff and countless hours of off-season training with Tom Brady, he became one of the NFL's most dynamic punt returners and top receivers who can deliver in the biggest games.
Relentless is the story of Edelman's rise, and the continuing dominance of the Patriot dynasty, filled with memories of growing up with a father who was as demanding as any NFL coach, his near-constant fight to keep his intensity and competitiveness in check in high school and college, and his celebrated nine seasons with the Patriots. Julian shares insights into his relationships and rivalries and his friendships with teammates such as Tom Brady, Wes Welker, Matt Slater, and Randy Moss. Finally, he reveals the story behind "the catch" and life on the inside of a team for the ages.
Inspiring, honest, and unapologetic, Relentless proves that the heart of a champion can never be measured.

Relentless A Memoir Audible Audio Edition Julian Edelman Gregory Abbey Hachette Audio Books Reviews
- I loved this book. It was very intense, filled with ups and downs, and many other things. I lerned that if you want something, you have to earn it. Nobody became a star in anything without trying. Julian worked harder than anyone else, he put all of his time and effort into what he loved and belived in, and he came out on top. He got this far on his determination and long to play in the NFL, and look at where that landed him. This is easily the best book I ever read in 2017 and 2016. Just an amazing book, and remember, NO SNIVELING!!!!!!!!!! EVER!!!!
- This is an excellent memoir by Super Bowl LIII MVP Julian Edelman.
The memoir is aptly named as well relentless. This is the saga of an undersized but determined athlete who persevered through high school, college, and the NFL to overcome his lack of size with relentless determination to succeed.
Julian walks us through his entire athletic career overcoming all the doubters and shaping himself into a successful athlete at all levels of football. What is truly amazing is his ability to go from a small college quarterback at Kent State and learn a whole new craft of being a successful wide receiver in the NFL. That is not an easy transition even for the most gifted of athletes but Edelman not only has done it but now has one of the iconic catches in Super Bowl history and now a Super Bowl MVP that will etch his name in football history in perpetuity.
I also liked how the book is interspersed with thoughts from coaches and teammates throughout his athletic journey.
This is a great book that shows that relentless determination can allow anyone to live their dreams. - My son read this book and loved it. Perfect for the football fan in your house, especially a Patriots fan
- The guy can write as well as he can play football. So who does his daughter live with? Does he have a relationship with her mother? I got more questions.
- Julian, after reading this book, I feel great admiration for your dedication to the Patriots and the game of football. You are one tough individual to overcome all your injuries and still have a great attitude.
Shirley Black - Great inside look at tunEFUl and what a sacrifice it requires. Read starts a little slow going through childhood years. It really picks up from there. Inspirational and motivational plus a great pro football book.
- It is a perfect purchase. I affixed to the mirror above the bathroom sink. I now can apply my makeup in confidence. Do not hesitate to buy.
- Awesome book! Thoroughly enjoyed. You can see why he is such a good player with all the hard work put into it.
