Gisele Bundchen’s joke about roasting Tom Brady came from Drew Bledsoe’s wife, ex-QB reveals as he reacts to ‘mean’ comments during Netflix special

Drew Bledsoe ripped Tom Brady with a brutal joke about the end of his marriage to Gisele Bundchen during Sunday’s Netflix roast of his former Patriots teammate.

But the morning after delivering the gag in front of a stunned audience in California, the former quarterback admitted it wasn’t his own work.
