Russell Wilson and Tom Brady have an email connection

PHOENIX -- Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson has an email buddy you might not expect. It's New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady. It started through a mutual friend.

"I'm not sure if I should give that information out," Wilson said Wednesday. "It's [Wheels Up Co-Founder and CEO)]Kenny Dichter. I'm real good friends with him. He's a University of Wisconsin grad who I know really well, so that's how I know Tom. We've shared emails back and forth."

They haven't emailed each other in the last two weeks, of course, but Wilson said he and Brady recently sent a similar email to Dichter.

"It was right before the playoffs started," Wilson said. "I told Kenny, ‘Hey, we're probably going to play Tom Brady in the Super Bowl. Get ready for it.' And Tom, the day before or the same day, said the same thing. It's just funny how that worked out."
