Former New England Patriots wide receiver Wes Welker
was invited to “The Roast of Tom Brady,” which aired on Netflix in May. However, he declined to go for very specific reasons.
Welker and Brady were teammates from 2007-2012. He recorded 672 receptions for 7,459 yards and 37 touchdowns in his six seasons with the Patriots. The former five-time Pro Bowler instantly became one of Brady’s favorite targets to the point where he had over 100 receptions in five of his seasons in New England.
Multiple former teammates of Brady’s were in attendance at the roast, including Drew Bledsoe, Julian Edelman and Rob Gronkowski.
