Tom Brady made a brutal ‘discovery’ about his Fox Sports contract on Sunday – as the NFL legend was informed he’d have to work on Thanksgiving.
Brady, who called the Packers’ win over the 49ers for the network earlier in the afternoon, appeared on Fox’s ‘The OT’ postgame show when host Curt Menefee dropped some big news on him.
‘Hey Tom, [Michael] Strahan’s first year, he learned that he actually had to work on Thanksgiving Day,’ Menefee began.
‘He thought he had it off. Did they tell you that before you came? You have to work on Thanksgiving Day this year!’
Brady then pretended to make a shocked face before saying, ‘What?’
