Brady, the seven-time Super Bowl champion, is expected to cover the Week 1 game between the Dallas Cowboys and Cleveland Browns on Sunday, Sept. 8.

Brady signed a 10-year, $375 million contract with FOX Sports, replacing Greg Olsen, another former NFL star turned commentator.

Brady, who has been rehearsing “a lot” for his debut, said in an interview with Curt Menefee that he hopes people who watch will see how much he loves football.

“How do I understand the mechanics of broadcasting and network television?” Brady said. “Now that I’ve gone through that process, I’ve just gotten back to being me. To see clearly what I see on the field. And what people will hopefully see is my love for the game.”
