In Hernandez's two page missive to the fan, sent from the Bristol County House of Correction in North Dartmouth, Mass., the ex-NFL star maintained his innocence.

"I'm a great dude," Hernandez told Imm. "Don't believe all the negative publicity."

He went on to describe his incarceration as "God's plan" and even blamed the media!

"Media is the negative of the fame!" he penned in response to Imm, who told RadarOnline.com that he had sent a letter to Hernandez first.

"Never be down from your incident because 'God' has a plan before all of us and that's why I'll never be down.

"Stay away from all negative people so your (sic) aways there for your little boy."

He added, "I'm doing fine but wanted to write you and definitely wanted to say thanks for the support! Hope to hear back from you if wanted!"

Hernandez's letter was postmarked July 17 and from Inmate No. 174594 - his jail identification number.

He signed it off: "Thanks again brotha!"

Hernandez has pleaded not guilty to murder and is being held without bail.
