Former New England Patriots and Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady took a big-time shot at New York Giants signal-caller Daniel ones during his appearance at the Fanatics Fest on Friday.
The Fanatics Fest event took place in New York and featured a Q&A between Tom Brady and Stephen A. Smith. During Smith’s interview with Brady, the seven-time Super Bowl champion was asked about his approach and commentary style for his upcoming NFL analyst career.
Brady signed a 10-year, $375 million deal with FOX Sports in 2022. After a year away from football, the three-time league MVP is ready to return to television, where he’ll work alongside Kevin Burkhardt and Erin Andrews.
During the interview with Smith, Tom Brady stated that he doesn’t plan to be overly critical on television. For example, he won’t scream, “That’s horrible,” if a quarterback throws a bad interception.
However, Brady managed to sneak in a little shot at Daniel Jones while vowing not to be too critical of quarterbacks.
“In some ways, I don’t necessarily know exactly what the problem was on that play. Let’s say Daniel Jones throws an interception,” Brady said as the crowd erupted into laughter. “I wasn’t even being critical of Daniel Jones. Maybe I was a little it.”

Every NFL analyst has their own unique style, so it’ll be interesting to see how Tom Brady separates himself from the likes of Troy Aikman, Kirk Herbstreit and Tony Romo. In-game analysts in general try not to be overly critical in general, but only time will tell if Brady can keep his word.
Brady will make his NFL analyst debut on Sept. 8 for FOX Sports’ “America’s Game of the Week” showdown between the Dallas Cowboys and Cleveland Browns.
