The deal will see him calling games alongside lead play-by-play announcer Kevin Burkhardt.
Brady’s rumored deal will see him sign a 10-year, $375 million contract as the terms remain under wraps. The surprising news was first broken by FOX CEO Lachlan Murdoch in a corporate investor call with Brady becoming an ambassador for client and promotional initiatives.
