It all started at a recent media session, when the 23-year-old said he didn’t have the 44-year-old’s phone number, which elicited laughter from the media and an “I don’t think I’m there yet” follow-up.

The Buccaneers’ first-round pick in 2020 replied and apologized to the 199th pick in the 2000 draft, albeit in a spelling-be-damned manner.
“Sorry you’re mentions we’re probably blowing up today,” he said.
