After an illustrious 23-year career in the NFL, Tom Brady decided to retire following the 2022 season. It seemed like the seven-time Super Bowl champion would finally step away from the football field. However, his break from the sport was short-lived. A few months after his retirement, Brady made headlines by signing a staggering 10-year, $375 million contract with Fox Sports. Joining Kevin Burkhardt and Erin Andrews, he became part of Fox’s lead broadcast team but delayed his debut until 2024. His first year in the booth saw him call the season’s most significant game—Super Bowl LIX between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles.
Erin Andrews Reacts to Tom Brady’s Impressive Hockey Skills in Viral Video
With the NFL season over, Brady found himself with extra time on his hands and took to exploring new hobbies. One of his off-season activities quickly gained attention, thanks to his playful post on Instagram. In support of Team USA ahead of the NHL‘s 4-Nations Face-Off Championship Game against Canada, Brady shared a video showcasing his attempt at ice skating. The post, captioned with “HERE WE GO!” highlighted the former quarterback’s lighthearted attempt to flex his hockey skills.
The post didn’t go unnoticed, particularly by Erin Andrews, his fellow Fox Sports colleague. Displaying her sharp sense of humor and extensive hockey knowledge, Andrews humorously commented, “Off sides.” The playful jab not only amused fans but also showed Andrews’ familiarity with the sport—a knowledge stemming from her personal connection to the NHL.
Andrews’ familiarity with hockey isn’t just from being a sports broadcaster; it runs in her family. Her husband, Jarret Stoll, is a former NHL center who had an impressive 13-season career. Beginning his journey with the Edmonton Oilers in 2002, Stoll later joined the Los Angeles Kings in 2008, where he became a two-time Stanley Cup champion. Even after his playing days ended, Stoll remained with the Kings, transitioning into a player development role.
