Speaking to his business manager Ben Rawitz, the 47-year-old claimed: "I'm a little worried about our head coach's work ethic."
Rawitz then responded: "A little too lackadaisical?"
It came after Brady had shared his own experiences in the NFL with Rooney while at the training ground.
The legendary quarterback appointed Rooney to replace John Eustace at St Andrew's in October 2023 with Birmingham sixth in the Championship table.

However, he was sacked three months later after winning just two out of 15 games.
The Blues had dropped down to 20th by the time Rooney left.
Despite his disappointing tenure at Birmingham, fans have jumped to the ex-striker's defence following Brady's comments.
One person said: "I think Brady needs to stay in his lane."

Lando Norris leads McLaren one-two at Hungarian Grand Prix
Two McLaren drivers, wheel to wheel at turn 1, fans on their feet and their bosses biting their nails on the pitwall, this was Formula 1 at its finest. It will certainly feel like it for Lando Norris, who having made an error at the start, had a better strategy and held off his team-mate on fresher tyres brilliantly. Oscar Piastri, the championship leader, made a critical error on his penultimate attempt to pass Norris, locking up and almost colliding with his team-mate. 'Remember how we go racing', was the call from his race engineer, but for the Australian it was already too late, ruining his chance to have one final attempt on the last lap. Norris closed the gap to his team-mate for the world title to only nine points going into Formula 1's summer shutdown.

Falkirk come from behind twice to get the point against Dundee United
The Bairns fans watched the Championship flag being unfurled on the pitch before the game, marking their return to the top flight after a 15-year absence but against the general run of play Max Watters scored his first United goal in the 39th minute with a terrific volley from 14 yards. Dylan Tait levelled in the 50th minute with a fine finish but Ivan Dolcek restored the Tannadice side's lead in the 71st minute, with his first counter for United – only for home defender Ethan Ross to level with a deflected strike two minutes later. A share of the spoils was probably the correct outcome. Falkirk, unchanged, began the game unbeaten in their four Premier Sports Cup games this season. Jim Goodwin's side had won through to the Conference League third qualifiers with a 2-0 aggregate win over Luxembourg side UNA Strassen on Thursday night. Kristijan Trapanovski and Will Ferry missed out through injury, with Watters and Isaac Pappoe, the midfielder on loan from Ferencvaros, taking over. Falkirk, so comfortable on their artificial surface, immediately had United on the back foot, albeit failing to really test visiting goalkeeper Yevhen Kucherenko. The free-flowing Bairns kept pushing forward and in the 20th minute left-back Leon McCann's whipped in cross from the left arrived at Calvin Miller at the back post via a Brian Graham flick but he could not redirect his header towards goal. Kucherenko caused another scare when he was closed down by Ross as he aimed to clear but the ball bounced wide. United had a terrific chance to score on the break in the 26th minute but unmarked Watters' header from a Panutche Camara cross was too tame to unduly bother former Celtic keeper Scott Bain. However, the Taysiders forged ahead following a driving run into the left channel by former Falkirk midfielder Craig Sibbald, whose cross was repelled by Bairns defender Liam Henderson but only to on-loan Barnsley forward Watters, who thrashed the ball behind the helpless Bain. The second half continued in an open fashion and, after United striker Zac Sapsford was booked for diving in the Falkirk box, the home side levelled. Right-back Keelan Adams forced his way to the byline and cut the ball back for skipper Brad Spencer to lay it off to midfielder Tait, who hammered the ball high into the net from 12 yards. The home side had the ascendancy again but United stormed back into the lead after Camara drove forward and set up Dolcek, who beat Bain after his first effort had been blocked. Falkirk returned fire moments later when Ross' deflected shot from 14 yards after taking an Adams cross, wrong-footed Kucherenko. There were further opportunities at both ends in an exciting finale but the two sides sides had to settle for a point apiece.
