Brady retired for the first time from the NFL in 2022 and signed a 10-year, $375 million broadcasting deal with Fox.
He would play one more season in the NFL before retiring a final time.
The 46-year-old Brady confirmed on The Pat McAfee Show on Tuesday that he will be the Fox NFL broadcast lead game analyst alongside Kevin Burkhardt.
Brady told McAfee that he’ll also call the Super Bowl in New Orleans as Fox will air the big game next season.
The NFL leg end said commentating the Super Bowl is “going to be incredible” and revealed that he’s received support from his co-workers at Fox.
“I’ve got really great teammates that embrace me and have opened their arms,” Brady said.
“I’m sure by the end of the year I will be more comfortable.”
Brady added that he’s picked the brains of broadcasters during the NFL season in his journey to becoming a star analyst.
“It’s been something that I’ve really challenged myself, and I really look forward to getting on there and calling games for Fox starting in September,” he said.
The seven-time Super Bowl champion also told McAfee that he will help bring his 23 years of experience in the NFL to the millions of TV viewers.
“I’m just going to go in there and do the best I can do with my own perspective, and I certainly have had a unique vision and perspective of the game in 23 years,” Brady said.
“And hopefully I just can provide some insight to all the viewers and all the fans who love the game, who love the sport.”
He’ll be replacing NFL tight end star Greg Olsen in the commentary booth.
