Have a seat, Morris Claiborne.

Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman, a former seventh-round draft pick, embarrassed the Cowboys’ cornerback, a former first-round pick, on a 1st-and-10 play in the second quarter during the Patriots’ Week 5 matchup against the Cowboys. Edelman made a juke at the line, left Claiborne in a pile on the ground, and then made an easy catch for 16 yards.
