The 2015 Academy of Country Music Awards took place at AT&T Stadium on Sunday night. And since the event was held at the venue that is home to the Dallas Cowboys, quarterback Tony Romo was brought in as a guest to introduce a performer.

But before he did, Blake Shelton interrupted him, and asked Romo to throw a pass to country singer Luke Bryan.

Romo threw a football to Bryan, who caught it. Shelton then decided to have some fun at the Patriots’ expense, and he asked if the ball was properly inflated.

Romo then responded with a subtle jab at the Patriots regarding Deflategate.

“Blake, we’re the Dallas Cowboys. We have real balls,” he said.

Romo not only has a strong arm, but also possesses a great sense of humor.
