Tom Brady recently signed a massive deal worth $375 Million with FOX. He will be an analyst for FOX Sports once he retires from the NFL. The deal is for 10-years, and everyone is excited to see Brady on TV once he’s done playing. However, one other player who transitioned from a player to a broadcaster had some advice for Brady.

Former Washington quarterback Joe Theismann, who is a Super Bowl-Winning quarterback himself, is now a broadcaster at NFL Network. He is well aware of the things that need to be done while becoming a broadcaster from a player. As a result, his advice might be valuable for Tom Brady.

Theismann, in his advice to Brady, said, “First of all, I’d say keep playing, Tom. Just keep playing. Because, whatever you faced on the field, it’ll be different once you go in the booth. You have three hours, roughly, to communicate the game to people. I don’t think he’s ever really worked in that environment…”

He added, “I wish him a lot of luck. He’s extremely intelligent about the game and has terrific communication skills. And now, you walk into the booth and it’s a bit different. Things are done there in soundbites because you have to give the play-by-play guys a chance to their job. So, there’s a bit of a routine that has to be developed, a chemistry that needs to be developed”
