Recently, Young Money President Mack Maine sat down with MTV News and among other things, spoke on how Lil Wayne’s favorite player, Minnesota Vikings’ Brett Favre, reached out to the incarcerated rapper and has him in high spirits.

“Brett reached out, and he made sure I told Wayne that,” Mack said in the interview. “That was the first thing [Brett] asked when he got back to camp, really. [Vikings tackle] Bryant McKinnie is one of our friends, B-Mac. [Favre] asked B-Mac, ‘How you been?’ B-Mac answered. And he was like, ‘How’s Wayne?’ That was his second question to B-Mac. Those two are real good friends. He said, ‘Let [Wayne] know I been praying for him and send him my love.’ So I let Wayne know that. He said, ‘You just brightened my spirits up for the rest of the month.’ He was real excited.”

Weezy is expected to be released from Rikers Island on November 4th, and I’m sure we’ll catch him in attendance of more than a few games!
