Tristan Wirfs’ contact list got quite the addition this week.
During a recent media session, the Buccaneers tackle, 23, revealed that he didn’t have teammate Tom Brady’s phone number, which prompted laughter from those in attendance.
“I don’t think I’m there yet,” he quipped at the podium.
Brady, who recently came out of a 40-day retirement to rejoin the Buccaneers, apparently heard the comments and decided to have some phone fun with Wirfs.
“Tristan, we’ve been trying to reach you regarding your cars extended warranty,” Brady texted, channeling his inner telemarketer.
“Just kidding your car is fine… it’s your favorite Qb.”
