Tom Brady looks to be set up pretty well for retirement.
Fox Sports announced that they have made a deal with the NFL legend (and greatest QB of all time) for whenever he chooses to re-retire.
Brady confirmed he planned to join the Fox team but that he was focused mainly on this year's Bucs and the task at hand preparing for the season.
This will be a nice retirement gig for Brady. He can focus on football and still be involved with the sport he loves after he's done playing.
The BIG news, however, comes with the New York Post's reporting on the details of the Brady deal:
Three hundred and seventy-five MILLION???
The biggest sports broadcasting contract in history.
I'm no financial guru, but I think that's technically called a boatload of money.
Fox Sports' deal to make Tom Brady its lead NFL game analyst after he retires is for 10 years and $375 million, The Post has learned.
It is the largest contract in sportscasting history, as it more than doubles both CBS' Tony Romo and ESPN's Troy Aikman in average annual salary of $18 million per season.
This is insane cash.
It more than doubles the next closest contract in football broadcasting.
Absolutely unbelievable.
And we don't even know if Brady can do the job? He can play football but is he a TV guy?
Tony Romo has proven that broadcasting talent is not necessarily tied to actual sports talent (sorry, Tony).
This is a huge move by Fox. They think that just having Brady in the booth will bring more eyeballs to Fox NFL broadcasts.
No matter how it works out for Fox, it looks like a guaranteed win for Brady.
