Tom Brady is set to take over Greg Olsen’s broadcasting position at FOX, and NFL fans are expressing their discontent about it.
Brady, who recently signed a massive 10-year, $375 million deal with Fox Sports, acknowledged the challenge of filling Olsen’s shoes during an episode of the Pat McAfee Show on Tuesday.
He praised Olsen for his exceptional work and expressed his intention to bring his unique perspective to the role.
“I think Greg’s done an incredible job,” Brady said. ‘I have so much respect for him, how he approaches his job. He’s super prepared in what he does. I think he does an incredible job every time he’s on. I love listening to him. And I’m just going to go in there and do the best I can do with my own perspective.”
