Tom Brady’s second season in the Fox Sports booth keeps finding new ways to get fans talking. The seven-time Super Bowl champion signed a 10-year, $375 million deal before his final Tampa Bay Buccaneers season in 2022, replacing Greg Olsen as the top analyst alongside Kevin Burkhardt.
Tom Brady reacts awkwardly in the broadcast booth as NFL fans flood social media with accusations after a bizarre Ravens vs. Rams game telecast.

But his transition from field general to broadcast star hasn’t been smooth. Every week brings fresh complaints about the greatest quarterback in NFL history. This Sunday’s Ravens-Rams game in Baltimore gave fans a whole new reason to sound off.
Tom Brady’s Glazed Look During Baltimore Ravens-Los Angeles Rams Blowout Has Fans Convinced He Was Stoned
The Ravens entered Sunday’s matchup as heavy favorites. But without injured quarterback Lamar Jackson, they had zero answers for Matthew Stafford and the powerhouse Rams.
The Rams cruised to an easy 17-3 victory in a game that looked way juicier on paper just weeks ago. But the lopsided score wasn’t the only thing that caught attention.
Fanswatching at home noticed something off about Brady’s appearance in the booth. The 47-year-old looked different.
His eyes seemed glazed. His demeanor felt slower than usual. And social media absolutely lost it with theories about what was going on with the future Hall of Famer.
The speculation ranged from harmless jokes to genuine concern, but one theme dominated the conversation.
Fans became convinced Brady showed up to work under the influence of marijuana.
Whether it was the lighting, exhaustion, or just an off day, the internet had already made up its mind. The $375 million man looked cooked, and fans weren’t letting it slide.
NFL Fans Roast Tom Brady With Brutal “High” Accusations on Social Media
The reactions came fast and merciless. One fanwrote, “Tom Brady Is HIGH.”
Anotheradded, “Tom Brady is so high dude.”
A thirdchimed in, “Thought the same grabbed the wrong edible.”
The pile-on continued. A fourthpointed out, “Tom Brady look high out his mind lmaoooo.”
A fifthasked, “Is it just me or did Tom Brady looked cooked on tv?”
The timing couldn’t be worse for Brady, who’s already faced criticism about his broadcast style, game analysis, and overall presence compared to other top NFL analysts.
Some fans love his insider perspective and calm delivery. Others find him stiff, overly diplomatic, or just plain boring compared to the fiery competitor they watched dominate for two decades on the field.
This latest round of social media roasting adds another layer to an already complicated broadcast career. Fox Sports pays Brady more yearly than most NFL teams pay their starting quarterbacks.
The network expects excellence. Instead, they’re getting weekly viral moments for all the wrong reasons.
Whether Brady responds to the rumors or Fox clears the air is still uncertain. One thing is clear though, the internet has already labeled this as the newest chapter in Brady’s rocky broadcasting journey.
