NFL Quarterback Tom Brady signs historic $540 million broadcast deal with Fox Sports

Tom Brady will join Fox Sports as their lead NFL announcer and analyst once he chooses to resign from the NFL.

The 10-year deal will see Brady announce alongside play-by-play announcer Kevin Burkhardt. 

No start date has been announced with the 45-year-old set to play another season for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, before moving into his new role.

Fox did not disclose the finer details of the deal, however, there are reports this is the largest contract in sportscasting history.

“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,”

Fox CEO Lachlan Murdoch

Arguably, there’s no one better equipped for the role than Brady, and this is a huge get for Fox Sports.

Brady is one of the most admired and respected sporting stars of all time, playing 22 seasons in the NFL.
