Ah, now I know why President Donald Trump wants to build a wall along the border with Mexico.

His buddy Tom Brady now knows too.

I’m kidding, of course, but the search for Brady’s missing Super Bowl jersey ended in Mexico.

Yah, that’s where police tracked it down.

The NFL says the quarterback’s game-worn jerseys from Super Bowl 51 in Houston, and another from Super Bowl 49, were retrieved after an investigation led by the FBI.

The probe also led to the recovery of Denver Broncos sack master Von Miller’s helmet from Super Bowl 50.

The man allegedly involved in the case has been identified as Martin Mauricio Ortega, who was a director of a newspaper, until he resigned last Tuesday.

Video footage reportedly shows Ortega entering the locker room, reaching into Brady’s bag, and putting the jersey into a black plastic bag and leaving.

That is 100 per cent despicable.

That would be like Brady going into the newsroom at this guy’s now former workplace and taking a picture of his wife and kids off his desk and taking off.

What an idiot.
