Pro Football Hall of Famer and Fox NFL studio host Terry Bradshaw took a subtle dig at his longtime employer in reference to the mega contract they gave color commentator Tom Brady.
Brady inked a ten-year, $375million deal with Fox back in 2022 and began his first year in the booth in 2024.
That included the seven-time Super Bowl champion calling Super Bowl LIX for the broadcaster - which brought in record numbers.
Bradshaw made an appearance on the To The Point Home Services podcast and joked about asking his bosses at Fox for a raise.
The Pittsburgh Steelers legend even offered a hypothetical rebuttal if those in charge denied his request.
“Did you see the numbers they did? The largest Super Bowl in history. 126 million people,' Bradshaw said on the show.

When Bradshaw joked about asking for a raise, he said he'd point to Brady's deal if they said no
'There’s 330 million people in America. That is a ton. The Fox pregame show averaged 28 million for five hours. Who in the world is gonna sit around and watch that mess for five hours? 28 million.”
“You know how much money they made? God. More money than plumbers, I can assure you that. 28 million.
'And I guarantee you, if I go in there and ask for a raise, "Well, we don’t have any… we’re running a little tight." Well, you just paid Tom Brady $37 million a year. I’ll take it. I did some bad deals, that’s what it was.”
Brady's deal is considered one of the richest, if not the richest, in all of broadcasting.
It also comes right after he purchased a minority ownership stake in the Las Vegas Raiders, which has complicated (but not prevented) his job for Fox.
