FOXBORO, Mass. — Patriots linebacker Jerod Mayo has delivered a proverbial frying pan to the face of Hollywood.
Mayo and former Pats wide receiver Troy Brown appeared in the movie, "The Three Stooges." They were listed in the credits as gang bangers.
Mayo joked Tuesday that he's ready to take over the acting world.
"Right now I'm focused on football, but if there are any roles out there, I'm willing to take them," Mayo said. "I had a little role. It was fun. Good time. Those guys are great. Went out there and had a great time last year, and came it came out Friday."
Mayo said he had "one long" line, but he wouldn't divulge any more details in hopes that the teaser would cause more people to vault the movie to No. 1 in the box office. Mayo noted the role came about when the Farrelly brothers called him last year about the part.
"It was a good time," Mayo said. "Bobby and Peter are great guys. I just had a little part, but it was a good time."
