TOM Brady’s Fox NFL broadcast debut has finally been revealed.
After signing a lucrative deal with Fox to call NFL games, the legendary quarterback has a date set for week one.
Brady will be in the lineup for the Dallas Cowboys’ season opener against the Cleveland Browns.
The game will be in Cleveland and will kick off what is intended to be the beginning of at least a ten-year career in broadcasting.
Brady signed a 10-year, $375 million contract with Fox in May 2022 that was set to begin in 2023.
However, he took a sabbatical last year to prepare for his new career and is expected to finally debut this year.
“I believe I can provide a pretty unique perspective that I think a lot of people will enjoy. It’s going to be a lot of hard work. It’s going to be a lot of fun,” Brady told Front Office Sports.
“It’s always a matter of challenging yourself to grow in different areas. And this is certainly one way to do that.”
Brady is joining Kevin Burkhardt on Fox’s No. 1 team, taking over the color commentator role from fan favorite Greg Olsen.
Olsen will be demoted to the second team with Joe Davis upon Brady’s arrival.
