Bill Belichick to join a star-studded group of former Patriots in roasting Tom Brady on Netflix

Bill Belichick is set to join a star-studded group of former New England Patriots in ripping their old quarterback later this week in a live Netflix special, called 'The Roast of Tom Brady.' 

The 72-year-old, six-time Super Bowl winner will make a second media appearance in as many weeks on Sunday, May 5, after joining 'The Pat McAfee Show' for the 2024 NFL Draft last Thursday, April 26, according to the NFL Network's Gregg Rosenthal. 

Rosenthal added that actor Ben Affleck - a Massachusetts native - has been 'listed as probable' for the special, which will be part of Netflix is a Joke Fest, the streaming service's flagship comedy festival. 

Former Patriots QB Drew Bledsoe, who Brady backed up during the 2001 season, wide receiver Julian Edelman, tight end Rob Gronkowski and wide receiver Randy Moss are also set to appear in Brady's roast, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. 

Kevin Hart will host the Netflix Special, which will also feature fellow comedian Jeff Ross, on Sunday. The broadcast will start at 8 p.m. ET.

'I played in the NFL, so I'm not worried about a bunch of comedians, trust me,' taunted Brady in a video shared with NBC's 'TODAY' show last week.

The seven-time Super Bowl champion also claimed that does not know who will appear to roast him.

Belichick, who left the Patriots in January after the most successful tenure in both franchise and NFL history, has hinted that he may've already potentially retired from coaching, last week, as he shared that he'll appear on 'The Pat McAfee' Show weekly throughout the 2024 season during his appearance for the Draft in Detroit on ESPN.

The six-time Super Bowl winner was strongly linked with head coaching vacancies on the Atlanta Falcons, L.A. Chargers and Dallas Cowboys, but to no avail.

Last week, the Patriots selected former UNC quarterback Drake May as the No. 3 overall pick of the NFL Draft. May is the first draftee of the post-Belichick era. 

Belichick built a 302-165 career record with the Patriots (2000-23) and Cleveland Browns (1991-95). 

He is best remembered for his six Super Bowl wins with Brady, who considered him a father figure, as well.
