Tom Brady has begun his second NFL season as an broadcaster.
Brady, the seven-time Super Bowl champion, is set to call the Week 2 Super Bowl rematch between the Philadelphia Eagles and the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday, Sept. 8, which will be the first time the teams are facing off since the Eagles beat the Chiefs this past February.
The former New England Patriot signed a 10-year, $375 million contract with the FOX Sports last year, replacing Greg Olsen, another ex-NFL star turned commentator.
The partial owner of the Las Vegas Raiders will be announcing this Eagles-Chiefs game with Kevin Burkhardt, with Erin Andrews and Tom Rinaldi as sideline reporters.
Here’s what you need to know about Brady’s upcoming broadcast.
Is Tom Brady announcing today
Yes, Brady is announcing a game today between the Chiefs and the Eagles.
The game, which will take place on September 14, at 4:25 p.m. Eastern Time, will feature Brady in the booth with Fox’s lead NFL play-by-play announcer, Burkhardt.
Brady said that No. 1 on his power rankings after Week 1 of the NFL season was the Eagles, who defeated the Dallas Cowboys on Sept. 4.
“Now, they’re going to look to anchor that defense back in Week 2,” Brady said. “Combine that with a crazy offense that plays its best in the biggest moments and a QB that’s very calm under pressure. That combo is going to take you a long way.”
Brady placed the Chiefs, who lost their Week 1 game against Los Angeles Chargers, at No. 7 on his power rankings list.
