Tom Brady's Admission Before Super Bowl Broadcasting Debut

Tom Brady made his way to New Orleans, Louisiana, to make his Super Bowl broadcasting debut for Fox Sports.

Brady signed on with Fox following 23 seasons playing quarterback in the NFL. The former New England Patriots and Tampa Bay Buccaneers star took a year-long hiatus before entering the booth but instantly became part of the lead team with Kevin Burkhardt and sideline reporter Erin Andrews.

Brady brings experience to the booth that no other commentator can. He won an NFL record seven Super Bowls and was named MVP three times. He also holds just about every other career record a quarterback can.

Even with all the success Brady has seen since he was drafted in 2000, that did not come without some failures. He did win seven Super Bowls, but he also lost three, including when the Patriots failed to finish the 2007 season with a 19-0 record, falling to the New York Giants.

Although Brady is very familiar with playing in a Super Bowl, calling one may have proven a challenge. On Monday, Brady released his new vlog called "Day In The Life at the Super Bowl." The video includes clips from before the Eagles' win over the Chiefs, and when asked if he was feeling nervous, Brady admitted he was.

"A little more than normal to be honest," Brady said before Super Bowl LIX. "How well we do is going be dependant on how good the game is cause the game is the show.”

Brady got to watch as the Eagles beat up on the Chiefs, walking away with a 40-22 win. Similar to Brady and the Patriots, Mahomes and the Chiefs also failed to make NFL history, missing out on the first-ever Super Bowl three-peat.

Now, Mahomes still remains four rings away from tying Brady for the record.
