Ross made a joke about the allegations Kraft faced in 2019 and compared them to Brady as a rookie.
“Tom became a Patriot, moved to New England, and on the first day of training camp, this skinny rookie walked into owner Robert Kraft’s office and said, I’m the biggest decision your organization has ever made. .. you like a massage,” Ross said.
The joke got a laugh from the audience, but Brady was clearly not impressed with Ross’ delivery.
Brady went to the microphone and tried to whisper in Ross’ ear, but everyone heard him.
“Don’t say that shit again,” Brady said.
Ross was referring to a misdemeanor charge Kraft faced for soliciting prostitution at a Florida spa in 2019.
Kraft pleaded not guilty and the charges were eventually dropped after it was ruled that his constitutional rights were violated.
“I’m sorry,” Kraft said at the time.

“I know I have hurt and disappointed my family, my closest friends, my co-workers, our fans and many others who rightfully hold me to a higher standard.
“Throughout my life, I have always tried to do the right thing. The last thing I would want to do is disrespect another human being.
“I hope to be judged not by my words, but by my actions. And through these actions, I hope to regain your trust and respect.”
While Brady may not have liked what Ross said about Kraft, fans were largely on Ross’ side and shared their thoughts on social media.
“Tom Brady wasn’t a fan of that Robert Kraft joke… It felt like a close Will Smith moment,” said one fan.
“Tom Brady almost slapped Jeff Ross after a joke he made about Robert Kraft,” said another fan.
“I think Tom Brady was really upset about that Jeff Ross joke. Wow this is crazy,” said a third fan.
“Wow, did Tom Brady really get mad at Jeff Ross over that Robert Kraft joke? It was hilarious,” said a fourth fan.
Brady took many more hits throughout the night, drawing criticism from Bill Belichick, Julian Edelman and other teammates and comedians.
