Brock Purdy and Brandon Aiyuk might not be connecting on the field for the 49ers this season, but it appears they'll soon be connecting at the bank.
The two seem to have placed a friendly wager on Saturday's Big 12 championship game between Aiyuk's alma mater, Arizona State, and Purdy's alma mater, Iowa State.
And after ASU dominated Iowa State, Aiyuk came calling on social and was ready to collect his money.
"Brock my brother, yeah let me get that brother," Aiyuk said in a video he posted to his Instagram story Saturday. "Let me get that. All blues, please. Make sure it's all there, too. Thank you!"
He also tagged Purdy in the video, with the caption: "I'm a Sun Devil man!"
