Affleck -- identifying himself as Ryan “Salty” Flanagan from Roslindale, Massachusetts, said he was turning himself in.

“Let me ask you a question: Who are you gonna believe: Tom Brady, the greatest man in all humanity? Or a bunch of a****** on Twitter?” he asked.

Tyler, Aerosmith’s lead singer, posed with a deflated football, looking sullen.

A mustachioed Evans said Brady could not have been responsible “unless he deflated those footballs with his piercing baby blue eyes.”

The segment ended, as do many of Damon's appearances on \"Jimmy Kimmel Live,\" by highlighting the simmering rivalry between the actor and late-night host.

\"My name is Tubby Herlihy, and I acted alone,\" Damon said.

The camera zoomed out to show Kimmel standing beside him.

\"Do you know why you acted alone?\" Kimmel asked.

\"Why?\" Damon responded.

\"Because nobody wants to act with you,\" Kimmel said, at which point Krasinski emerged.

\"Good burn,\" Krasinski said, slapping Kimmel's hand and chuckling.

Krasinski and Damon shared an awkward pause, so Krasinski tried to chip away the ice: \"Go Pats,\" he said.

\"There we go. Go Patriots,\" Damon said, the butt of another late-night jab.
