Social media is ripping on FOX Sports for displaying another bizarre hologram of Tom Brady before today’s games kicked off.
Tom Brady is in the first season of a 10-year, $375 million contract he signed with FOX in 2022. The seven-time Super Bowl champion is on the network’s top commentary team with play-by-play voice Kevin Burkhardt and sideline reporter Erin Andrews.
Before the early afternoon games commenced, FOX featured their $375 million man via hologram in the studio with Curt Menefee, Michael Strahan and Rob Gronkowski. The Brady hologram shared some pre-game analysis for the Chicago Bears-Green Bay Packers game:

It’s been a busy year for Brady, who was also approved as a minority owner for the NFL’s Las Vegas Raiders. Brady must follow a strict set of rules as an owner and NFL analyst, and that includes being barred from criticizing officials.
Tom Brady Has Improved As An NFL Analyst Since Week 1
Brady was clearly nervous and uncomfortable in his first couple of weeks as an NFL analyst, but he’s certainly improved over the last few weeks. The three-time league MVP has settled in nicely and sounds a lot more confident in the booth, a welcoming development since he’ll be calling the Super Bowl.
