The NFL world welcomed a GOAT to the broadcast booth Sunday.
Tom Brady made his broadcasting debut as part of Fox’s coverage of the Week 1 game between the Dallas Cowboys and Cleveland Browns. He will be featured all year as part of the team with play-by-play announcer Kevin Burkhardt and reporters Erin Andrews and Tom Rinaldi.
Naturally, social media had plenty of reaction to his debut:

Whatever Brady did after his retirement was going to generate headlines, as he is the greatest quarterback in NFL history with a resume that includes seven Super Bowl titles, five Super Bowl MVPs, three league MVPs and 15 Pro Bowl selections.
