Tom Brady is coming back for at least one more season with your Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but after that… well that’s anyone’s guess. Tom may not even know himself. He was clear that when he made the decision to play in this upcoming season that he has some unfinished business to tend to take care of. So once he gets the job done, what’s next? There’s some breaking news this morning on that…
Fox Sports announced this morning that they’ve come to an agreement with Tom Brady to be their lead analyst. It’s not a big surprise that Tom’s going to be on TV. Many thought it would be an inevitable choice for the networks once Tom hangs it up. But that’s not all.
According to the tweets from Fox Corporation Executive Chair & CEO Lachlan Murdoch, “Tom will not only call our biggest NFL games with Kevin Burkhardt, but will also serve as an ambassador for us, particularly with respect to client and promotional initiatives.” Sounds like Fox went all in and is ready to cut a pretty big check once Tom Brady calls it a day with the Bucs. Tom saw the tweet this morning and had this reaction: “Excited, but a lot of unfinished business on the field with the @Buccaneers #LFG”
