A bottle of Cameron Jordan's favorite wine is on the way to Bank of America Stadium.

The New Orleans Saints defensive end promised to send the wine - a 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon from Jordan Vineyard and Winery - to Cam Newton after Sunday's wild-card victory over the Carolina Panthers. He made good on that promise Monday, posting a photo of the wine and a shipping label on his Instagram story.

"You beat the Carolina Panthers three times in a year, I'm gonna have to send this guy a wine bottle," Jordan said of Newton, according to Josh Katzenstein of the Times-Picayune. "I appreciate him for being that good ol' quarterback. I'm gonna send him a nice little bottle of Jordan wine. No, it's not mine, but I have been drinking it for years. So, I'm going to send him some sauce."

The pair have exchanged digs before, including leading up to their Week 13 tilt, when Newton made a comment about Jordan's fashion sense and joked that he could "send him some sauce."
