The future of Tom Brady beyond the field is bright. According to Andrew Marchand of the New York Post, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback has a broadcasting deal in place once he decides to hang up his cleats — for good.
Tom Brady has agreed to join Fox Sports as its lead NFL analyst when his career ends, Fox CEO Lachlan Murdoch announced.
Brady is far from the first football legend to come up with the idea of calling games as a post-NFL career option, but this is still big news, considering that he is regarded by many people as the greatest to ever play the game. For Fox, Brady coming over to the network appears to be a win as well, especially after Joe Buck and former Dallas Cowboys quarterback Troy Aikman left them for Bristol.
The Buccaneers' signal-caller is also expected to work with Kevin Burkhardt and receive additional roles beyond broadcasting duties, per Adam Schefter of ESPN.
FOX Sports: “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.”
The future Hall of Famer has also sent out a tweet reacting to the news of his next chapeter getting out.
Excited, but a lot of unfinished business on the field with the @Buccaneers #LFG https://t.co/FwKlQp02Hi

Brady, who will be turning 46 in August, has nothing left to prove as a player, but the thirst for at least one more Super Bowl ring has him coming back to the Buccaneers for at least the 2022 NFL season.
