Patton Oswalt Returning to ‘Brooklyn Nine-Nine’

Stand-up comedian is the one who brings in Terrell Owens to tackle the NYPD in the annual football game

Patton Oswalt

Patton Oswalt is coming back to “Brooklyn Nine-Nine,” TheWrap has learned — and this time he’s got a secret weapon.

Fire Marshall Boone (Oswalt) will enlist ex-NFLer Terrell Owens to help the FDNY defeat the NYPD in their football game. And the former group needs the help, as the “Nine-Nine” always wins thanks to Sergeant Terry Jeffords (Terry Crews).

Owens, who in his prime was known as much for his diva-ish behavior off the field as he was for his on-field National Football League talents, tweeted a photo of himself on-set with Crews on Aug. 8.

Crews also played in the NFL; he was selected in the 11th round of the 1991 draft by the Los Angeles Rams. Crews also had stints with the San Diego Chargers, Washington Redskins and Eagles.

Oswalt is not at all known for athletic prowess, in case you were wondering.
