Former quarterback Tom Brady was seen this past Sunday participating in the layperson's elite Sunday activity: rotting in various locations around the house and posting. "So this is what you do on a Sunday," Brady wrote in the first of two selfies, including some 100 emojis and inexplicably adding The Killers "Mr. Brightside" as a soundtrack. The next post, which he later deleted, was another cuddly selfie that wouldn't be out of place on a college girl's Snapchat circa 2014

Of course, Brady is the executive producer of this series (via his Religion of Sports production company), and it's well-known he grew up as a die-hard 49ers fan. At a red carpet event ahead of the San Francisco premiere last week, Brady's production partner Gotham Chopra said this specific project has been a long time coming from the seven-time Super Bowl champion. "Tom is football, through and through - it's the love of his life. And I think that love was born and conceived with the 49ers," Chopra said. "... I think this is a story he's always wanted to tell, and it started to come together three or four years ago."

He had a tremendous season. He was an absolute turnover machine. The Bears, they didn't do a great job between the 20s. OK? The ball was move a lot. But when it came down to turning the ball over, they were better than every team in the league and he was a huge reason why. Intercepting passes, strip sacks, fumbles, fumble recoveries. What he did on a vet minimum contract or something like that, but

With the Kansas City Chiefs failing to qualify, this year marks the first postseason without Patrick Mahomes, Tom Brady or Peyton Manning since the 1998 campaign. Manning reached the playoffs in 1999, while Brady joined the ranks two years later. Mahomes had been in the playoffs each season since 2018, but he tore his ACL in a Week 15 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers. The defeat eliminated Kansas City from postseason contention, and the Chiefs finished 6-11.

The thought was how they ended their 2025 campaigns would be the determining factor in who was the clear frontrunner, and based on that logic, it should be an award inarguably going to Maye. But his final two games of the season were apparently not enough to convince everyone, including Tom Brady, that he should be the favorite, as odds have Stafford winning in his 17th season.

Generations of New Englanders will never forget that Tom Brady wore No. 12 (thanks also to his relentless branding efforts) or that David Ortiz wore No. 34 when he helped the Red Sox break the curse. Yet there are so many other examples of New England sports stars becoming linked with the number on the back of their jersey, to the point that some numbers are even retired by teams to honor those players.

For a retired guy, Tom Brady has a lot of jobs. He has a five-percent ownership stake in the Las Vegas Raiders. He is also Fox's lead football announcer. Earlier this month, Fox announced that Brady will be making an "epic return from retirement for the greatest flag football event ever," which is, inevitably, going to be held in Saudi Arabia. There's also TB12, "the method inspired by Tom Brady," though who knows how much involvement he has here.

Are we just picking numbers out of a hat and reporting them? While we're breaking news... Elvis is doing the halftime show, and babe Ruth is gonna sign some autographs for fans. Also I heard Dave prefers floppy pizza. Who cares about facts right? 😂 https://t.co/1pBq2FTj49- Tom Brady (@TomBrady) September 22, 2025

"There are no policies that prohibit an owner from sitting in the coaches' booth or wearing a headset during a game," NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy said. "Brady was sitting in the booth in his capacity as a limited partner. "All personnel sitting in the booth must abide by policies that prohibit the use of electronic devices other than league-issued equipment such as a Microsoft Surface Tablet for the Sideline Viewing System."

On top of the conflict of interest that comes with being both a part-owner of the Las Vegas Raiders and a Fox commentator, and in between his duties as " guy who says fuck and denigrates Birmingham City, the soccer club he co-owns," Brady has now signed up to do some good old fashioned sportswashing. On Monday, Brady announced that he will return to the football field for the, ugh, Fanatics Flag Football Classic, a three-team tournament set to be held in March of 2026
