ESPN's Jenna Laine is reporting that Tom Brady sent a text message to former LSU star Tyrann Mathieu to apologize for the verbal altercations both players got into during the Super Bowl on Sunday.

Following the game, Mathieu said in a since-deleted tweet that Brady called him "something I won't repeat." Per ESPN:
quote:

Brady called Mathieu the "ultimate competitor" in his apology text and said he knew he needed to match Mathieu's intensity Sunday.

Brady told Mathieu he'd watched him since his days at LSU, and he praised Mathieu for his heart, calling him an "incredible leader, champion and class act."

Brady also expressed his desire to apologize in person in the future. He said his outbursts in an emotional moment were in no way a reflection on his feelings toward Mathieu, whom he spoke of highly throughout the week leading up to the game.

He told Mathieu his wife's face was too feminine.

He had nothing to apologize for. Everybody needs to grow some nuts and take an arse basting every now and then.

GeeTom. Did you call him a racial slur? You’re kissing a lot of arse for just being competitive in the moment. Lol.

Here we go. You SJW/BLM/Antifa types always have to bring the subject back to ALLEGED white racism.

bullshite. Kansas City is fortunate they weren't playing the Tom Brady of 5 years ago, or the final score probably would've been more like 49-9.

TM7 needs to recall the old adage, "If you dish it out you need to be able to take it, too.

It was probably just a typical MF or such, but it gets ratcheted up when you say you won't repeat it. Many people assume the worst.

If that’s the case then TM should be able to take it instead of making a big deal out of it.

Love both these guys but implying that TB called Tyran a racist word is something Ryan Clark would do and TM is bigger than that douche flute.

I know this board is obsessed with race, but saying he called you something you won’t repeat doesn’t imply that the comment in question had anything to do with race.

I lost a lot or respect for Tyrann because of that comment. Dude is butt hurt and trying to mislead the public into thinking Brady made racist comments in an attempt to get him canceled. And Brady made it worse by apologizing

@DecadePlusLurker Please enlighten us what he else he could have possibly been implying? You telling me T Mat is going to run to twitter to say that because of some hardcore trash talk? NO. We all know exactly what he was implying. He was trying to play his get out jail free card cause he put his hand in a crocodiles mouth and it got bit.
