Edelman now only trails Jerry Rice after leapfrogging former Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Irvin in Sunday’s showdown with the Los Angeles Rams in Atlanta.
Patriots star Edelman entered the clash with a league-leading 247 postseason receiving yards this season.
The 32-year-old recorded seven receptions for 93 yards through the first two quarters to help the Patriots hold a 3-0 lead at half-time.
Edelman is just the 11th player to record six or more catches in multiple Super Bowls, according to OptaJerry.
He led the Patriots in regular-season receiving yards with a mark of 850 despite missing the first four games after violating the NFL’s policy on performance-enhancing substances.
