Julian Edelman's new contract with the New England Patriots has been reworked to give the team more protection in case his foot doesn't heal properly.
Edelman was due to receive a $50,000 workout bonus, but $40,000 of that bonus has been converted to a roster bonus that vests during the first week of the season.
Edelman reinjured his right foot and has been a limited participant in the team's offseason program.
