NFL duty after 22 seasons proved short-lived for Tom Brady, but the American football legend is now certain of his post-playing destination.That's after Fox Sports confirmed Brady—who retired in February only to reverse his decision 40 days later—will join their team as 'lead analyst' when he eventually hangs up his cleats.
The seven-time Super Bowl-winner has agreed to play at least a third season for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.A tweet from FOX Sports' NFL Twitter account on Tuesday read: "We are pleased to announce that immediately following his playing career, 7-time Super Bowl Champion Tom Brady will be joining us at @FOXSports as our lead analyst."Brady, 44, quoted that tweet while adding: "Excited, but a lot of unfinished business on the field with the @Buccaneers." FOX Corporation CEO Lachlan Murdoch said: "It will be a stellar and exciting television career, but that’s up to him to make that choice when he sees fit."The Bucs lifted their second Super Bowl crown at the conclusion of Brady's first season in Florida (2020).
His second term at Raymond James Stadium ended in a play-off defeat to the eventual champions, the Los Angeles Rams.Despite his advanced years, the 2021 season stood out as one of Brady's finest campaigns to date from a statistical standpoint. 'TB12' threw 43 touchdowns from 719 attempts and completed 5,316 passing yards during the regular season, leading the league in each of those fields.Who do you think will win Super Bowl LVII?
