Tom Brady’s first year as a TV company has come and gone, and it looks like he already has a style behind the microphone.
After 24 seasons that cemented themselves as the biggest quarterback of time, Brady Fox’s top color commentator joined Kevin Burkhardt to call the Super Bowl.
Brady’s TV spread is limited because of his ownership stake in Las Vegas Raiders, but even without it Brady has no interest in bashing players while on call.

In a recent interview with complex sports, Brady was praised for being “supportive” for Patrick Mahomes, who at the age of 29 has already been added to the ged conversation with the seven-time Super Bowl champion Brady.
“How can I throw shade on someone who is as amazing as he is? I know what he’s been through,” Brady said.
It’s his thinking for each player in the game, especially quarterbacks.

“And I think the one position I am in now as a TV company feels a responsibility, A, to tell the fans what I see and be honest and in advance about everything. But also realize that what these guys do on the field is extremely difficult,” Brady added.
“Are they doing the right plays all the time? Certainly not. By the way, I didn’t either. And I think you have to have this context and perspective.
“You realize it’s not about this harsh criticism, and that’s really not what it’s all about anyway,” Brady continued. “For me it’s more about, let’s point out the greatness of these individual players. Have fun. Enjoy it. Entertain a little. And really try to educate people a little.

“But that’s what I want to do on TV. And thought it was a great season because I have a good team at Fox. And we will continue to build on the success we had this year.”
Brady signed a 10-year deal with FOX.
