Tom Brady “Excited About The Future With Fox” Amid 10-Year Broadcasting Contract: “The First Year Of A Long Relationship,” Agent Says
Tom Brady is wrapping up his first year as a Fox Sports broadcaster and plans to continue talking about the NFL for years to come.
The seven-time Super Bowl champion debuted as a broadcaster in the Fall of 2024 and, according to his agent, Don Yee, is said to be “excited” to continue being an on-air personality.
“Tom has had a tremendous amount of fun working with Fox this year, and he’s really excited about the future with Fox and his growth on their team,” Yee told Sports Business Journal. “And this year was the first year of a long relationship.”
The future of Brady’s time as a broadcaster came into question after the football star bought a stake in the Las Vegas Raiders team, which could pose a conflict of interest.
It was in October 2024 when the NFL approved a sale of a 10% stake in the Raiders to a group that includes Brady, with the former quarterback star holding a 5% stake.
Per NFL.com, “Brady is not permitted to attend in-person or online broadcast production meetings and may not have access to team facilities, players or coaches. Fox staff is not subject to these limitations.
Brady also “must abide by the league constitution and bylaws that prohibit public criticism of officials and other clubs, but is allowed to broadcast Raiders games.”
Brady had a rocky start to his career as a broadcaster, and he acknowledged later that he had “things to clean up” as he continued to get comfortable in his new role. His debut helped Fox score its best ratings in four years at the time.
