Tom Brady has agreed to join Fox as its lead analyst!!
Lachlan Murdoch reported that Tom Brady has agreed to join Fox Sports as its lead NFL analyst whenever he stops playing.
This is such big news in the media world. The biggest face of the sport will now be the lead analyst for the biggest channel of the sport.
This means Legendary football player Tom Brady will join Fox Sports as part of a multi-year deal once he ends his NFL career, lending the company a potential new boost after it lost longtime announcers Joe Buck and Troy Aikman to ESPN.
The news was disclosed by Fox Corporation CEO Lachlan Murdoch during an investor call. The executive said Brady's arrival at Fox Sports remained uncertain, as the decision about when to walk off the playing field would be left up to the athlete. He is, however, expected to call NFL games with Kevin Burkhardt, the Fox Sports announcer whose role was recently elevated after the exit of Buck and Aikman.
Over the course of this long-term agreement, 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.
We are delighted that Tom has committed to joining the Fox team and wish him all the best during this upcoming season."
