It looks like Wiggy Wednesdays have come to an end.

Instead, radio listeners will get an opportunity to hear Jermaine Wiggins at least five days a week from now on. The former Patriots tight end will co-host a morning show on Hot 96.9 FM, securing himself a regular spot on the radio dial after contributing to multiple local television and radio programs.

Wiggins, who will be teamed with radio personalities Pebbles and Melissa in the GetUp Crew, will cover all topics for the Top 40, hip hop, and throwback station. His tenure started Tuesday.

Patriots fans have gotten to know Wiggins over the years a little more closely since his time on the gridiron. He’s guest spotted on 98.5 FM The Sports Hub, contributed to Comcast Sportsnet New England, NESN, WBZ-TV, and WHDH-TV.
