Tom Brady to join FOX Sports as lead NFL analyst following playing career

Nobody seems to know when future Hall of Fame quarterback Tom Brady is going to officially hang up the cleats on his playing career. It had appeared that "TB12" had called it quits on Feb. 1, but the first retirement of the "GOAT" lasted all of about six weeks.

Regardless of when Brady is actually done competing on the football field for good, it now appears that some of the plans for his post-playing days are coming into focus.

Shortly after the news came out on Tuesday morning, the three-time MVP expressed his excitement via social media, but he made sure to let fans know that he is far from finished on the gridiron.

In an attempt to secure Brady his unprecedented eighth Super Bowl title in the upcoming season, the Bucs have made a host of moves this offseason. Included among them have been re-signing running back Leonard Fournette to a three-year, $21 million contract and signing former Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Russell Gage on a three-year, $30 million deal in March.
