Julian Edelman's Height
5ft 9 ½ (176.5 cm)
American footballer, who has played as a wide receiver for The New England Patriots. He was recorded for the draft measuring a fraction over 5ft 10. In the Washington Post he mentioned "I wasn’t mad that people said I couldn’t play quarterback. It was kind of the transition of what I needed to do. I’m 5-10 and this is the NFL. There’s only one guy that’s done it and that’s Doug Flutie. I’d be going against the odds."

@Editor Rob: I’m going to put this into the Height Request page but Kyler Murray. That one will be an interesting debate. No one believes his 5’10 1/8”. He’s shorter than Edelman and Brown

@Editor Rob and Christian: I think they should mandate socks off and as a bonus, have someone there to audit the results. That’s in every sport

Video'd measurements of sports stars is something big sporting organisations and TV should look at.
I mean people watch weigh-ins...to me, that isn't as interesting as height and a lot more people search for celebrity height than weight...
Maybe do it the way Blazer (a former poster) mentioned the military doing it when he was still in the military many years back. He said they did some PT work before measuring. Not sure if a low but it was maybe 1/4” above it at that stage.

@Mickie: in addition to Viper having seen him, I saw him from a distance (apparently at the same game Viper attended from how he described it). I wasn’t close enough to him to be able to accurately gauge his height so I assumed he was probably about what he was listed or that at worst he was maybe 1” off for shoes. However I know someone else who has seen him up close and said he’s not as tall as he’s listed. He said he was somewhere around 6’2” like Viper. But I asked him about the possibility of under 6’1.5” and he didn’t think he was that low. I would guess that he’s at minimum 6’2 if not 6’2-6’2.5 range

Rob's speculation of lifts inside of socks isn't impossible either.
Editor Rob
Unless socks are off, there's always the risk of socklifts, though really I'd say it is still quite a rarity.

I agree with this listing and actually think he might be shorter then this he doesn’t look much different then Jamie foxx with antanio brown though it kinda concerns me and confuses me that he is measured at a height that’s a quarter inch taller then a guy (Antanio Brown) who actually looks like he’s a inch and a half taller honestly Edelman and Jeff Cavalier look more similar in height then Edelman does with Brown. I kind of wonder if maybe antanio brown was measured shorter then his actual height which can happen or be measured taller or maybe he grew sometime from the time he got drafted until now.

5’9” tops probably closer to 5’8.5”
I met him along with several other Patriots players such as Jerrod mayo, Aqib talib and Kevin Faulk, that would come into the Chilis In Walpole Mass that I use to work at while I was in college back in 2012, before he was a big name player. I’m a little under 6’1” and I dwarfed him when I walked by him as he was coming out of the mens room. He was driving a new white Kia suv and was on a date with a cute local girl that was around 20 at the time.

There is a photo of Julian next to 5'10 model Adriana Lima both of them wearing flats. There is at least a 2 or 3-inch difference. I'd guess 5 foot 8 1/2.

Also sorry for the missed spelling of my name, I was also looking at pictures of 5 foot 10 Devon mcortney both on stage similar foot wear Devon seems to have 2 inches on him.He can look 5 foot 9-10 sometimes but he's 5 foot 8-9 in those pictures at most even his book he said he was 5 feet tall then grew 8 inches which would make him 5 foot 8. I think the lowest he can be is 5 foot 8 1/2. Just can't explain those pictures with devon, lima ,brown, and appears to only have a 1/2 inch on wahlberg. Anyway thanks big rob best height site in the world!.

If adriana Lima is 5 foot 10 how come there are a few pictures of them both in flats and she is about 2 inches taller than him easily, that would put him in the 5 foot 8-9 range

@Viper: next to Brady he can look 5’9.5-5’10 worst case but typically if Brady is a solid 6’4” the difference is around 6”. Although next to Ellen he looks under 5’10”

@Littlelee168: nobody is 100% accurate. Everyone is estimating. And Rob uses his estimate for a low as opposed to his combine measurement which he gave Curry. Both guys were measured early morning so he’s got a point if he’s only really 4” shorter than Curry. Curry is more like 6’1.5 than 6’2 but Edelman can in fact look the solid 5’10” with Brady but 1/4” off isn’t noticeable so 5’9.75 is possible since that’s 1/4” off. 5’9.75 is also 3.75” off Curry so that’s possible to make 4” difference appear

He does actually look a bit less than 5’10 with Ellen. Maybe his case was one where he dipped a couple cm like Jason Witten or Lamont Jordan who were 3/4” higher at combine than their team measurements

He may give off a shorter impression at times but with Brady who almost always looks a legit 6’4” he can look 5’10”. This is in most pics of them. The one below isn’t great but in most it’s generally half a foot difference between the two

I can't see him a mm higher than this listing.
I don't think he's a flat 5'9 but this is just generous for an at bedtime measurement. I would have guessed 5'9.5 solidly with a slight chance of 5'9.75. Anyway he definitely isn't short like 5'7 or anything, but there are clear pictures of him and Lima wearing flats and she still looks maybe 1-2 cm meaning in equal footwear she'd edge him definitely
