Devin McCourty, a three-time Super Bowl champion with the New England Patriots, is an impactful personality both on and off the field. Following a remarkable 13-season NFL career as a defensive back, the legend recently appeared on The Up and Adams Show with Kay Adams to share a shocking revelation about Tom Brady’s upcoming Netflix Roast. 

McCourty initially spoke about not receiving an invitation to Tom Brady’s podcast, implying that Brady may have prioritized inviting offensive players over defensive ones. This led to a humorous jab at Brady’s Let’s Go! podcast, referring to it as “a little podcast.” But it looks like McCourty also missed the invitation list for something else.

He attributed this to his defensive position and suggested that invitations were extended mainly to offensive players like Julian Edelman, Danny Amendola, and Rob Gronkowski. However, the speaker noted that veteran defensive players like Rodney Harrison attended the roast and humorously remarked on their playful ribbing of Brady during the event, “guys who, from my understanding, really roasted him a lot.”
