"Oh man, it was super dope," Wilson said. "Like I mean, I remember my jaw dropping like wait, is this real? Just to be able to have someone that mattered like matters and cares for us to come in and it's something that we always needed because you know, we always love when people have a seat at the table.

"And obviously Tom Brady has a seat at the table, with him to reach out and say, 'Hey, no, I want to be a part of this and helping it grow.' It was truly truly a lot of fun."
