Tom Brady got destroyed by fans online after his media credentials were exposed in a selfie on Sunday night.
The former NFL quarterback will be in stadiums around the country this season, but in a very different capacity, having been hired by FOX Sports as an analyst. Still, executives at the network might be sweating as the seven-time Super Bowl winner has teased a comeback in recent times.
He was in the building for a practice run when the Cowboys played the Browns last weekend, and he was back for another test run in the Saints-49ers game on Sunday night.

Unfortunately for Brady, his accreditation was exposed in a selfie on the night, and the internet got a real kick out of it, given that he did not bother taking a new photo.
As you can see in the photo below, his old NFL headshot is what’s on there. That now the tweets been deleted.

Before the tweet was deleted, fans had many things to say.
“nah wth 😭😭😭😭,” one wrote in disbelief.
“What a nerd…” another wrote.
“Bro is living the dream,” said another user.
“Fact that this dude even needs credentials is laughable,” someone pointed out.
“Insane Flex,” one comment read.
“The GOAT doesn’t need credentials,” another read.
Tom Brady Had An Enjoyable Sunday Night
Brady quite enjoyed himself on Sunday night. He called part of the contest, wetting his feet again, but was chatting with players and even threw passes in the buildup as he seemed to relish the opportunity to be part of a game atmosphere.
The 🐐 still got it. @TomBrady

The former QB may have very well played for the Niners last season had Kyle Shanahan been more convincing, but it appears his playing days are well and truly over now.
Or are they? You can never really tell with him.
Tom Brady Shocks Everyone With His List Of The Top 4 Quarterbacks In The NFL Right Now

Tom Brady has shared his list of the top four quarterbacks in the NFL right heading into the 2024 season, 23 days before he debuts as an analyst for FOX Sports.
The 47-year-old Tom Brady attended the Fanatics Fest event in New York City on Friday. As part of the event, he participated in a Q&A segment with longtime ESPN analyst Stephen A. Smith.
During the Q&A session, Brady listed his top four current quarterbacks in the NFL. Smith wanted the seven-time Super Bowl champion to name his top five, but Brady only listed his top four.
Brady’s picks are Patrick Mahomes (Kansas City Chiefs), Josh Allen (Buffalo Bills), Lamar Jackson (Baltimore Ravens) and Joe Burow (Cincinnati Bengals). Smith took the opportunity to throw in Aaron Rodgers’ name as the fifth QB.
Tom Brady went 3-3 in six meetings against Mahomes, with two of those victories coming in the 2018 AFC Championship and Super Bowl 55. Brady swept Allen 4-0 in their four regular season meetings but went 0-2 against Jackson’s Ravens and 0-1 vs. Burrow.

It’s hard to debate Mahomes’ status as the top QB in the game, with three Super Bowl rings, three Super Bowl MVPs and two regular season MVPs. But surely, fans will have lots to say over Brady’s other choices for the top QBs.
Tom Brady Now Gets To Analyze His Former Opponents
Looking at the marquee games on FOX’s 2024 NFL broadcasting schedule, it’s highly likely that Brady will be on the call for Mahomes, Allen and Jackson at least once. The Bengals only have three games on FOX, and none of them feel like “America’s Game of the Week” candidates for Brady and Kevin Burkhardt to call (at Carolina Panthers, vs. Las Vegas Raiders and at Tennessee Titans).
Brady will debut as an NFL analyst on Sept. 8, when he, Burkhardt and sideline reporter Erin Andrews call the Cleveland Browns’ Week 1 home game against the Dallas Cowboys.
