That’s because on Monday, Pro Football Hall of Famer Michael Strahan revealed to Brady that his first game with FOX will be the Dallas Cowboys’ visit to Cleveland, where they’ll take on Myles Garrett’s Browns:

So mark that can’t-miss game on your schedule: Brady, play-by-play voice Kevin Burkhardt and sideline reporter Erin Andrews will be on the call for the Browns’ home opener against America’s Team.

Even if you take Brady’s FOX debut out of the picture here, there’s a lot to like about the Dallas-Cleveland matchup. Both teams finished with double-digit victories last season to reach the playoffs, only to be crushed in the Wild Card Round.


Dak Prescott, CeeDee Lamb, Zack Martin, Micah Parsons and Trevon Diggs vs. Garrett, Denzel Ward, Deshaun Watson, Amari Cooper, Nick Chubb, Joel Bitonio and Wyatt Teller promises to be a fascinating matchup.

In the 2022 offseason, Brady and FOX agreed to a massive 10-year deal worth $375 million. Year one of that contract begins in less than four months, so prepare your popcorn.

Tom Brady Is Back On Your Television Sets

Last season marked the first NFL campaign without Tom Brady since 1999, when Bill Clinton was president and the world was still freaking out over “Y2K.”

But fortunately for longtime fans of the seven-time Super Bowl Champion, Brady’s absence from weekly appearances on NFL Sunday will have only lasted a year. After an illustrious 23-year run as a player, he’s now moving to the broadcast booth.

Brady, Burkhardt and Andrews will also be on the call for Super Bowl 59 next season in New Orleans, Louisiana.

There Was Only One Sensitive Topic That Participants Weren’t Allowed To Attack During Tom Brady’s Roast On Netflix

And it seemed like there were no lines they wouldn’t cross.

The likes of Kevin Hart, Jeff Ross, Sam Jay, and Nikki Glaser were among the comedians who got to hit Brady on the night, while former coach Bill Belichick and former teammates such as Randy Moss, Rob Gronkowski, Julian Edelman, and Drew Bledsoe had their opportunities to get certain things off their chests as well.

Brady’s divorce from Gisele Bundchen and her relationship with jiu-jitsu instructor Joaquim Valente were among popular topics, with his ex-girlfriend Bridget Moynahan also being mentioned. The deflategate scandal was brought up too, with Brady actually admitting to it at the end.

Even Aaron Hernandez caught strays, but Glaser has since revealed that there was one topic no one was allowed to tackle: Brady’s kids.

Tom Brady May Not Have Been The One To Exclude His Kids

TMZ reports that Brady didn’t necessarily demand that his kids be off limits, but there was an understanding among the roasters that they wouldn’t be touched.

“As it turns out … the hot-button issue was his kids — so, there weren’t jokes about them. However, we’re told the whole no-kids thing was a mutual understanding among the performers … not necessarily a rule Tom himself imposed. Either way, AH was fair game,” the publication noted.

The former New England Patriots and Tampa Bay Buccaneers star has two children with Bundchen and one with Moynahan.

While celebrity roasts are typically no-holds-barred, keeping Tom Brady’s kids out of it was good form.
