Although Brady's first season as a broadcaster has drawn mixed reviews, he recently got a huge endorsement from veteran play-by-play man Al Michaels.

Speaking on the Sports Media podcast with Richard Deitsch, Michaels said "my personal opinion, and I don’t really weigh in on announcers a lot, I think he’s done a very good job. And I think he’s gotten better and better, and I very much enjoy listening to him."

Brady is set to call a postseason game for Fox involving two Lions coordinators who are head coaching candidates for the Raiders. It's a conflict of interest that he might be able to avoid more of over the next nine years with some creative scheduling, but one that many believe ought to force him to choose between the two high-profile football jobs.

Brady, 47, signed a 10-year, $375 million contract with Fox in May 2022.
