I would think he would be afraid to try, given that it would reveal that he is not really from Hawaii.

Awesome. Of course, the nation would be defenseless for a while, but the you-tube video would be fantastic.

I assume Edelman commissioned this, given who is referred to as "his sister" in the video.

Oh.my.god. Anyone who hasn't checked this out? Do it.

What do you mean?  We'd still have Gronk to protect us.

My middle and high school experience is excited to hear that nerding out about Star Wars is now considered jock-appropriate "corny bro-ness."

He's just getting started. 
 
And the thing is, the joking is just that, joking, but those clips of him in the huddle during the SB and with Tom after the game show that the shtick is very much based on who he is.
 
Enjoy it, I say.  Edelman wears it on his sleeve and is milking up his time in the sun.

I don’t want that play to define me. I don’t want to be a guy who had one great moment then disappeared. Getting to the NFL is hard, but staying there is even harder. There’s always someone out there gunning for your job. Last season, I was that guy trying to take someone’s job. Now, because the hard work I’ve put in — and yeah, because of that interception — I have a chance to lock down my spot on the roster. And when I do, I’m guarding it with my life.

On Thursday's PFW, "Matty No Socks" popped in to talk about the upcoming Three Games to Glory, due out in early May. He sure makes it sound like it's going to be unbelievable. A good amount of mic'd up stuff that you haven't seen on Turning Point or Sound F/X or anywhere else, as well as some behind the scenes Kraft Productions footage. BB breaking down several key plays from the Super Bowl, video of the practice play Butler famously got burned on (I think that detail has been mentioned up-thread) and a bunch of other stuff I can't remember. I can't wait.

Peter King has some more details on this in yesterday's MMQB: http://mmqb.si.com/2015/04/20/tim-tebow-signs-philadelphia-eagles-nfl/2/
 
 
The play is part of “3 Games To Glory IV,” (NFL Films/Kraft Sports Group, $39.95). This the fourth time the Patriots have put out a video series during the Kraft ownership regime—one after each Super Bowl victory. This three-Blu-ray/DVD set is seven hours, a collaborative effort of NFL Films and the Kraft Sports Group, and includes every play of the three playoff games from NFL Films cameras, plus interviews and footage shot by the Patriots and not seen before. Such as the Thursday practice play, which is the most enlightening piece of video I’ve seen in the wake of one of the best Super Bowls ever.
 
Kraft used to sit in Boston and then Foxboro as a Patriots fan before buying the team and says he would wonder what the coaches and players were saying to each other on the sideline and in the huddle. “I always used to think of what I’d want to see and hear as a fan,” he said Saturday, “and so when we got the team, and we went to the Super Bowl for the first time, it seemed like a good idea for the fans that if we won it, we’d be able to show them some of the inside stuff they would appreciate. What does Bill [Belichick] say to Tom [Brady]? What are the meetings like behind the scenes? For us, it’s not about selling DVDs. It’s about building a brand, serving our fans, and preserving history. Knowing we can bring this to our fans is pretty special for us.”
 
The team’s senior executive producer of broadcast production, Matt Smith, saw video of the practice play and went to the coaching staff to get clearer views of it.
 
“That is the pièce de résistance of the segment,” said Smith. “As we were going through the tape, our shot wasn’t great. I went [to the coaches] and made the point that this was something all fans would want to see. It was exciting to know that we had the footage and the back story.”

So the coaching staff gave them the tape for the practice play; that's pretty cool.

He's doing it ironically. Ironically.

The play looks a little bit different from the Super Bowl play -- the receivers weren't quite as stacked.  If anything, the fact that this is the practice play that allowed Butler and Browner to diagnose the play and jump the route makes it even more impressive.
