The New England Patriots are back home following their 28-24 victory over the Seattle Seahawks on Super Bowl Sunday. The Patriots returned to a region dealing with another major snowstorm. Boston had planned a parade through downtown today, but Mayor Marty Walsh says the celebration now will be held tomorrow due to the weather.
A person with knowledge of the situation tells The Associated Press on condition of anonymity that New England Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman passed a concussion test after a big hit in the Super Bowl appeared to leave him groggy. Edelman stayed in the game and caught the game-winning touchdown a few minutes later.
