The former Wolves defender, who played over 100 games for the club is set to return to Molineux to replace Vitor Pereira.
Edwards was handed permission to speak with Wolves officials on Saturday - and departs Boro after only joining the club back in the summer.
Jonny Drury and Liam Keen discussed the imminent appointment on the latest episode of the E&S Wolves podcast, and looked at the challenge that faces him with Wolves rooted to the foot of the Premier League table.
And they debate whether the job this season is something of a 'free hit' for Edwards, given Wolves' current position.
