HOUSTON — Julian Edelman was on the receiving end of a bad non-call Sunday at Super Bowl LI, but someone else bore the brunt of it.
The New England Patriots wideout clearly was hit out of bounds by Falcons linebacker Deion Jones during a first-quarter drive, and when he fell to the ground afterward, he took the ballboy with him.

Edelman wasn’t happy about the non-call, and he let the ref know about it. Perhaps the ballboy should have, too.
