It was officially announced on Tuesday that legendary quarterback Tom Brady will get to cover one of his former teams for Week 4.
Brady, a seven-time Super Bowl champion, will be on the call for this Sunday’s clash between the Philadelphia Eagles and Tampa Bay Buccaneers. This will be the first time he calls a Buccaneers game since retiring from the NFL after the 2022 season. In 50 games with the Buccaneers, he had 14,643 passing yards and 108 touchdowns.
As per usual, Brady will be on the call with Kevin Burkhardt. Sideline reporter Erin Andrews will also make the trip to Raymond James Stadium.
On Tuesday night, Brady shared the news that he’ll be calling the Eagles-Buccaneers game. He appears to be fired up for Week 4.
“Can’t wait @buccaneers,” Brady wrote. “LFG @foxsports.”

Brady knows the ins and outs of the Buccaneers, so he should be able to provide expert analysis on head coach Todd Bowles. He also knows how star players like Mike Evans and Chris Godwin operate on a daily basis.
It should be great hearing Brady on the broadcast, especially since he’s improving each and every week.
As for the game itself, both the Buccaneers and Eagles are 2-1 heading into this matchup. They actually met during the Wild Card round of the playoffs last season.
The Buccaneers destroyed the Eagles by a final score of 32-9. Baker Mayfield was exceptional, completing 22 of 36 passes for 337 yards with three touchdowns.
Kickoff for the Eagles-Buccaneers game is at 1 p.m. ET.
