Tom Brady appears to be growing into his role as a broadcaster and had quite a memorable performance in the booth during Saturday night’s playoff clash between the Washington Commanders and Detroit Lions.
The Commanders managed to pull off a shocking upset away from home, beating the favorites 45-31, with rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels putting on an offensive clinic.
New owner Josh Harris was seen coming to the sideline when it appeared that the game was in the bag for Washington, prompting Brady to say, “Not sure coach Quinn likes owners coming down on the field before the game is over.”

Tom Brady’s Comment Wasn’t Random
The quip was in reference to Atlanta Falcons owner Arthur Blank coming to the sideline while his team was up in that 3-28 Super Bowl classic against the New England Patriots in 2017.
The Pats turned things around to fashion the biggest comeback in Super Bowl history, and it is likely one of Brady’s fondest memories from his playing days.
Harris wouldn’t experience the same fate as Blank and Atlanta, though. He watched his team secure passage to the NFC Championship Game for the first time since the 1991 season, where they will play either the Philadelphia Eagles or Los Angeles Rams.
