    NFL legend Tom Brady made his broadcast debut with Fox during the Dallas Cowboys 33-17 win over the Cleveland Browns in Week 1.

    Brady signed a ten-year, $375M contract with Fox a few months after retiring in 2022. After taking 2023 off, Brady is now a part of Fox's lead team, which also consists of Kevin Burkhardt and sideline reporter Erin Andrews, both of whom have been with the network for 10+ years.

    In his debut, many fans noticed Brady struggling throughout the game, with numerous viewers pointing out some stuttering and awkwardness in his commentating.

    Andrews noticed this during the game as well. In the latest episode of " Calm Down With Erin And Charissa ," Andrews revealed a story about a rehearsal with Brady and how they struggled.

    "Here's a fun little one," Andrews said. "We were doing a quick rehearsal with Tom because, you know we hadn't done it before where they throw it down to me. People don't understand they're on stick mics, then they have to go to headset, and it's a whole thing where they have to like get up and move and all that."

    Then Andrews went on to reveal the message she had for the 7-time Super Bowl winner amid his broadcasting debut jitters.

    "I completely butchered the s*** out of my open," Andrews added. "I was like ‘blah blah blah,’ and then I go see Tom Brady, ‘You're not the only one that struggles sometimes.' and I was like, ‘blush,’ so, not that he was struggling, but I was trying to make him feel better."

    Even Brady knows he has things to improve on after his debut, admitting there are "things to clean up" and that "it's a learning process," per Sports Illustrated.

    Brady and Andrews will get the Cowboys once again in Week 2, but this time, they will be headed to AT&T Stadium with the New Orleans Saints coming to town.

    Despite his struggles in Week 1, many fans are still eager to see more of Brady in the booth. As many consider him the best player in NFL history. his knowledge of the game will be something to look forward to each week.
