Retired NFL icon Tom Brady is making waves not simply on the sector but in addition within the broadcasting world with FOX Sports, the place he is not more likely to step down any time quickly.

His agent Don Yee quashed any doubts during an interview with Ben Fischer of Sports Business Journal: “Tom has had a tremendous amount of fun working with Fox this year, and he’s really excited about the future with Fox and his growth on their team,” Yee affirmed.

“So enjoy Tom in the booth because you’re not going to see him there next year. He will be in the Raiders front office, he will not return as an analyst for FOX – you cannot be this involved in the operation of a team and be the No 1 analyst. It’s an absolute insult to analysts what he’s doing. And it’s an insult to team president what he’s doing.

“You finish up doing each of them in a mediocre approach… and I promise you he’ll select the Raiders,” and he continued with certainty: “Tom Brady is not going to be with FOX subsequent season, he’ll be full time within the Raiders entrance workplace operating that staff. Period.”
