To the presumed relief of everyone involved, the sculpture created a suitable likeness of Brady unlike statues paying tribute to Cristiano Ronaldo and Dwyane Wade . The seven-time Super Bowl winner (the Lombardi Trophy from 2020-21 season was with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers) goes into his third season as the color analyst for Fox’s No.

Last season, the Patriots were the surprise of the NFL, finishing 14-3 on their way to the Super Bowl.
But based on the previous year’s record, New England wasn’t scheduled for any prominent broadcasts that Brady would have called. And CBS has the AFC broadcast package, while Fox focuses largely on NFC games, so Brady did not call any Patriots games during the postseason. NBC carried the Super Bowl telecast.
