  Speed, who has connected with seven-time Super Bowl winner Brady over the course of the last 12 months, paid a visit to the American football legend’s Miami home. The pair have previously discussed producing content together – with Ronaldo potentially getting involved.

  On this occasion, Brady told IShowSpeed: “You come to my house… I know he’s your guy. A rookie card. I know he’s your guy.” Stunned Speed said: “I don’t even have this one… this one is like rare.”
