Tom Brady is No Stranger to Fan Criticism, But Was His Comment During His Ejection Actually an Opposition to NFL Restrictions?

Harry November 5, 2024

There’s probably very little Tom Brady I haven’t heard of it in the realm of fan criticism. Forget hardest jokes Tom Brady’s FriesHe is considered the greatest quarterback of all time, causing fans of approximately 31 NFL teams to hate him. Brady is now with his playing days in the past went to the broadcast boothand yet it is expected to be abundant those who oppose his ability In his new role, his comments during a game could actually be against the league’s rules.

Detroit Lions and Green Bay Packers on Sunday night on Fox with Kevin Burkhardt and Tom Brady is on the phone. In the second quarter, officials at the NFL’s replay headquarters in New York made the controversial decision to eject Lions safety Brian Branch for a helmet-to-helmet collision with the Packers’ Bo Melton. You can see and hear the game Brady’s reaction to this under:

It could be debated for days whether the New York office made the right decision regarding the dismissal — believe me, it will — but the issue at hand specifically involves Tom Brady. The retired QB recently part owner of the Las Vegas Raiders and therefore Rules Brady must follow in his broadcaster role. One of these rules states that he is prohibited from publicly criticizing game officials or other clubs. Many fans thought he did just that in his commentary on the Lions-Packers game, as he wrote on X (Twitter):

Whether it was the right call or not, it’s certainly worth noting to hear Brady criticize an officiating call, something he’s technically prohibited from doing as part owner of the Raiders – njh287
As part of the ownership agreement, Tom Brady was not allowed to criticize officials. This certainly sounded like criticism after the dismissal. – houseofburgh412
I thought Tom Brady wasn’t allowed to criticize referees under the terms of minority ownership. I also heard him speak positively about the Raiders while talking about Jacobs. Hmmmm – buttnerme
So much for Tom Brady not being allowed to criticize NFL referees… I clearly disagree with the dismissal. – PatsBuzz

Will Tom Brady face repercussions for his comments? I guess this will come down to the official language of the rule, because — as the last tweet unwittingly noted — there’s a difference between Brady disagreeing with the refs and criticizing them. Fox broadcaster’s full statement was as follows:

I don’t like this call at all. I mean, of course it’s a penalty, but in my opinion, in a game like this, it has to be a serious intention.

As reported by ESPN, the rule states that Tom Brady could theoretically challenge a live call but could be subject to a fine or suspension if he goes too far. This is pretty vague language because who can say how far away?

It will be interesting to see how this plays out, because if nothing else this could work as a shot across the bow. exorbitantly paid publisher About how he will react to future decisions he disagrees with.
