When does Tom Brady start broadcasting? Patriots broadcast drops 7x Super Bowl champ's debut details
Tom Brady is the biggest legend there is in Foxborough.
There's no player in the history of the New England Patriots who has as much love and affection from the fans as their former quarterback. He built a dynasty with Bill Belichick, winning six titles over two decades, and is set to return to NFL circles as an analyst for FOX Sports.
The Patriots played the second game of their 2024 preseason on Thursday, with a few ex-players calling the games on the booth. As such, they might have given away the fact that Brady will call the first New England game in Week 5, against the Miami Dolphins:
It's already known that his first game will be a contest between the Dallas Cowboys and the Cleveland Browns in Week 1. If his impact and knowledge on the booth are anything closer to what Tony Romo provided in his first year after retirement, then the fans are in for a good time.
What is Tom Brady doing now?
Now retired from the league after more than two decades playing and with the GOAT title firmly in his hands, Tom Brady has been involved in numerous investments in recent years.
While he was doing promotional work for FTX, the now-bankrupt crypto company, he earned $55 million for 20 hours of promotional work every year for three years.
Of course, there's also his investment in sports teams, with Birmingham City and Las Vegas Aces as part of his portfolio and the Las Vegas Raiders set to join them as well - even though Birmingham got relegated from the English Championship League
The former New England Patriots and Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback has a net worth of around $300 million, according to the specialized website Celebrity Net Worth.
His deal with FOX to become an analyst in NFL games has a duration of 10 years and is worth $375 million. He had one "free" year after he ended his playing career and has now taken over, even appearing in the booth a few times before to warm-up. Let's see if he'll be the GOAT there as well.
