There was only one rule at the roast of Tom Brady and comedian Jeff Ross apparently broke it.
It appears that Jeff Ross may have been aware of potential friction surrounding the Robert Kraft joke before delivering it during Netflix’s live event, “The Greatest Roast of All Time: Tom Brady.”
Comedian Andrew Schulz, another participant in the event, revealed that they had all been cautioned against discussing the 2019 incident involving the Patriots owner, where Kraft was accused of soliciting prostitution at a massage parlor in Florida.
“So Tom became a Patriot and moved up to New England, and on the first day of training camp, that scrawny rookie famously walked into the owner Robert Kraft’s office and said, ‘I’m the best decision your organization has ever made. Would you like a massage?’ ” Ross joked at the top of the event.
Brady then got up from his seat and whispered to Ross live on air, “Never say that sh** again.”

Ross has since spoken about the moment.
When asked on The Rich Eisen Show if he thought Brady was serious, Ross replied, “Come on, no way. He was having fun.”
However, former New England Patriots quarterback Drew Bledsoe who was in attendance alleged that Brady was actually mad.
Schultz agrees with Bledsoe that Brady was dead serious.
“He was ready to shut the whole thing down. That’s an alpha a** move right there.”
