Recently, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady signed a massive 10-year contract with the television broadcaster FOX Sports for the role of a full-time analyst. With this gig, Brady will become the highest-paid commentator in the history of Television. However, the former Indianapolis Colts punt Pat McAfee believes that the seven-time Super Bowl Champion is worth much more.

The contract assures Tom Brady a lucrative sum of $375 million distributed over ten years. That means, on average, he will earn around $37.5 million per year. Brady can only take up this job once he officially retires from the game. This deal has also ensured the fans that the GOAT will stay connected to the game. However, McAfee seems unsatisfied with the money entitled to Brady’s service.

“I feel like he’s gonna come in and probably just take over, like everything he does, right? I mean, he took over nutrition, just started opening facilities everywhere, eating avocado ice cream, I think he’s gonna be great but him just being associated with the league and with Fox is worth way more than thirty-seven and a half million dollars a year in my eyes personally.” McAfee said on this talk show.
