Check out the announcing and officiating crews for Sunday’s contest between the 49ers and Patriots.
One might think soon-to-be Hall of Fame quarterback Tom Brady would be assigned to the announcing crew for Fox Sports in Week 4 when his boyhood team, the San Francisco 49ers, welcome the franchise he made famous, the New England Patriots.
Well, no.
Brady, who is going through his first season on the broadcasting side, will actually be on the call for a game between the Philadelphia Eagles and another one of his former teams, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
However, it’s fair to wonder if Brady would have preferred heading out to the Bay Area for another visit and opportunity to witness two teams that mean a lot to him.
Instead, the Week 4 tilt between the Niners and Pats will feature another well-known Fox Sports crew covering the game.
