The three Patriots told reporters at the event that they loved being part of Pancake Day.
“These events are awesome,’’ Edelman told reporters. “I’ve been fortunate enough to come here and do this event a few years ago. It’s good to come back and do it again and put a smile on some of these kids’ faces. It really touches you. It’s a good feeling.’’
