Dicey Situation Buzzing Around Tom Brady’s $375,000,000 Fox Deal, NFL Insiders Reveal

A huge question mark lingers around Tom Brady‘s immediate future. While the conversation of him potentially returning to the gridiron is still very real, there are equal implications for his next endeavors. Brady backtracked on a promise to join the commentators’ booth, pushing his commitment with Fox to 2024.

Despite bagging himself a ten-year $375 million contract, Brady chose to recover and decompress from the stress of an illustrious NFL career. The delay surprised many as Fox Sports earlier declared the iconic quarterback will be their lead analyst as soon as he steps away from the game. However, with Brady having walked away from the NFL, fans have been waiting eagerly for him to take on the new role, but one NFL Insider has his doubts.

Is Brady set to join Fox Sports?

The general consensus around Tom Brady is that he is the greatest quarterback, period. What else would you expect from a seven-time Super Bowl champion? In recent times, despite going through a messy divorce, the NFL GOAT has found solace in the arms of his family ever since waving goodbye to the NFL. But Brady hasn’t turned his back on the NFL, hoping to return to the game as a lead analyst for Fox Sports.

But many are not so sure of Brady donning the new hat, including The New York Post’s Andrew Marchand.

“It was at 51 percent that he’s going to do it to 49 percent, with the reasoning it’s so much money he’ll try it for a year, However, I’ve talked to a couple of people recently close to Brady and I kind of feel like I’m going more 49 percent chance he does it, 51 percent chance he doesn’t. I don’t think he wants to travel that much — obviously, he’s going to go private.” expressed Marchand.

Marchand believes that the massive amount of money promised might tempt him to at least try the opportunity presented to him, but then again, it all depends on Brady and his priority list. Marchand also pointed out the fact that the legendary footballer is known for going all in on every single project he undertakes, and maybe the GOAT is just preparing.

Tom Brady wants to be great

“I want to be great at what I do,” said Brady in the same breath as he announced his plans of joining Fox Sports in 2024. Brady is extremely appreciative of the commitment that so many people show to their careers every day, a feat he is all too familiar with.

Brady also thanked the leadership at Fox Sports for showcasing their utmost confidence in him and allowing him the time to learn and not rush into anything.

While many still remain skeptical of Brady actually joining Fox, he still carries the same motivation from his playing days and still hates letting people down.
