Former LSU punter Brad Wing got a shoutout on Nicki Minaj’s new song

Former LSU punter Brad Wing is clearly a fan of popular singer Nicki Minaj, and now he’ll be an even bigger fan after she gave him a shoutout in her new song.

Wing, now punting for the New York Giants, was referenced in Minaj’s new song with Calvin Harris, called “Skrt On Me.”

Wing earned the name-drop by completing the #NickiMinajChallenge earlier in the month, posting a video of himself after finishing a six-mile run:

“Half of you can’t even spell six miles” *@nickiminaj voice* #NickiMinajChallenge

Minaj told him he’d be getting a shoutout on June 30, and she followed through on her word, tweeting the new lyrics on Friday:

Ima land the jump. Yoa Ming da dunk. And I'm playing the field. Brad Wing the punt. #SkrtOnMe @CalvinHarris new album out now

Wing was understandably pumped about the shoutout and posted a video of himself listening to the song on Instagram:

@nickiminaj Queen of rap. Punting just became cool. Go download @calvinharris – Skrt On Me ft @nickiminaj 🔥

Though Wing has reached the height of his sport, being name-dropped in a Nicki Minaj song is what will likely go down as the No. 1 thing on his resume moving forward.
