Tom Brady is scheduled to call his fourth NFL game this Sunday.
Brady has been in the booth through the first three weeks of the season alongside Kevin Burkhardt. Previously, Brady called the Cowboys’ Week 1 matchup with the Cleveland Browns and Week 2 against the New Orleans Saints. His broadcasting debut drew mixed reactions, but he has slowly shown signs of improvement on the mic.
Last Sunday, Tom Brady called his third consecutive Cowboys game.
Cowboy fans will get a break from TB12 in Week 4 – Brady will be on the call in Tampa Bay.
Here’s what to know about Brady’s broadcast this weekend:
What game is Tom Brady broadcasting?
- Game: Buccaneers vs. Eagles
- Start time: 1:00 p.m. ET
Tom Brady will be on the call for the Fox broadcast this Sunday at Raymond James Stadium, where the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Philadelphia Eagles will play. Kickoff is scheduled for 1:00 p.m. ET.
Tom Brady will accompany his broadcast partner, Kevin Burkhardt, while Tom Rinaldi and Erin Andrews will report from the sidelines.
This will be the first game Tom Brady will broadcast involving one of his two former teams. Brady played three seasons for the Buccaneers from 2020-2022, leading them to a Super Bowl win in Super Bowl LV. After playing his first twenty seasons with the New England Patriots, Brady had an overall record of 32-18 in 50 regular-season games with Tampa.
In his final NFL season, the seven-time Super Bowl champion played under current Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles. Brady is familiar with many current Tampa Bay players, notably wide receivers Mike Evans and Chris Godwin.
Last week, current Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield made some interesting comments regarding his predecessor during a podcast appearance. On the podcast, Mayfield said, “The building was a little bit different with Tom in there. Obviously, playing-wise, Tom is different. He had everybody dialed in, high-strung environment, so I think everybody was pretty stressed out.”
Will Tom Brady broadcast a Patriots game?
When Tom Brady signed his massive contract with Fox, NFL fans wondered when would be the first opportunity for Brady to call a Patriots game. At this point, there have been no announcements beyond Week 4.
However, there is speculation that Tom Brady will broadcast the Patriots’ first home game airing on Fox in Week 5 against the Miami Dolphins.
What is Tom Brady’s broadcasting salary?
The future Hall of Fame quarterback reportedly signed a historic 10-year, $375 million contract with Fox Sports.
