Name 3 iconic duos…and, go! Peanut Butter & Jelly! Jordan & Pippen! Meek Mill and…Robert Kraft? Didn’t see that one coming but hey, apparently, it works!
The 35-year-old rapper from south Philly and the 81-year-old New England Patriots billionaire owner have been friends for over 5 years. One of my favorite moments of their friendship is one that Deelon and I were actually in the building for. It was an early September night at TD Garden in Boston in 2018 and Drake was performing. A lot of regional celebrities were in the building, including Kraft, who apparently helped facilitate Meek coming out on stage for a moment that would officially serve as the Drake and Meek beef being squashed.
To this day, Meek and Kraft remain good friends and like many friends, they share gossip. The latest word on the street? According to Meek Mill, Lamar Jackson wants to play for the New England Patriots. Didn’t see that coming! Jackson has formally requested a trade from his current team, the Baltimore Ravens, and it would appear he knows where he’d like to call home. Kraft has apparently put the ball in coach Bill Belichick’s hands now, saying that it’ll ultimately be his decision. It’s safe to say that the interest of many Patriots fans has been piqued!
