One of the newest members of the FOX sports team, Tom Brady was spotted enjoying the sun and surf on a tropical island alongside his new FOX Sports teammates.
Charissa Thompson, one of Brady’s fellow FOX NFL colleagues, shared a massive group photo featuring a sizable portion of the FOX NFL team, capturing their camaraderie beyond the confines of the studio.
“No shortage of laughter or athleticism with this crew … We had ourselves a time, off the grid,” Thompson wrote in the caption of an Instagram post.

In the picturesque snapshot, Brady wasn’t the sole standout; the photo featured a constellation of notable names including Thompson, Erin Andrews, Rob Gronkowski, Michael Strahan, Jimmy Johnson, Howie Long, and Curt Menefee, among others.
Brady’s ascent to the network’s premier analyst position is accompanied by his pairing with top commentator Kevin Burkhardt, who previously shared the booth with Greg Olsen for the past two seasons.
This move marks a significant milestone in Brady’s post-playing career, coming nearly two years after the 46-year-old inked a groundbreaking ten-year, $375 million deal to join the network as its foremost NFL analyst.
With his expertise and charisma, Brady is poised to redefine the role of a sports analyst while providing fans with unparalleled insights into the game.
Brady’s enthusiasm for his new role in broadcasting has been palpable, yet earlier this year, he hinted at being open to the possibility of returning to the field if the opportunity arose due to an injury to a starting quarterback.
However, his potential partial ownership stake in the Las Vegas Raiders could present a significant hurdle for any potential comeback aspirations.
Such ownership ties could influence his decisions regarding a return to playing, as they may conflict with his duties and commitments in the broadcast booth.
“I’m always going to be in good shape, always be able to throw the ball,” Brady said on the DeepCuts podcast. “So, to come in for a little bit, like MJ coming back, I don’t know if they’d let me, but I wouldn’t be opposed to it.”
