4 of Tom Brady's former teammates confirmed to roast the GOAT in Netflix's live special
By Bryce Olin
It's not an everyday occurrence for NFL reporter, Adam Schefter, to be breaking Netflix news, but we'll take it! On Monday, April 29, Schefter confirmed four guests for The Greatest Roast of All Time: Tom Brady.
Schefter tweeted that four of Brady's former teammates with the New England Patriots will roast the greatest quarterback of all time on Sunday, May 5, 2024. Randy Moss, Rob Gronkowski, Julian Edelman, and Drew Bledsoe will roast Brady in Netflix's live special, which begins at 8 p.m. ET on Sunday.
Gronkowski, Moss, and Edelman are three of Brady's best wide receivers from his time with the Patriots. Gronkowski joined Brady with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and won Super Bowl LV in 2021. Bledsoe also won a Super Bowl with Brady, but in a different manner. Brady actually replaced Bledsoe as the starting quarterback of the New England Patriots after Bledsoe was injured early in the 2001-02 season. Brady led the Patriots to the Super Bowl victory over the St. Louis Rams. Talk about awkward!
Gronkowski, Moss, Edelman, and Bledsoe will join host Kevin Hart and Jeff Ross, who is at basically every roast of a famous person at this point, will also be there to roast the seven-time Super Bowl champion.
Schefter's tweet references others who will be roasting Brady in the new Netflix special, but he refrained from announcing who those other roasters will be.
After Schefter broke the news, Netflix tweeted, via The Netflix Is A Joke account, that there will be "much more to come" with a little winky face emoji. WHO ELSE IS GOING TO BE THERE? We need to know. There are so many comedians and sports stars who could join the roast. I guess we'll just have to wait and see.
