Tom Brady had another unscripted moment during FOX’s pregame coverage Sunday, when he accidentally used a curse word live on air after realizing he had answered a trivia question incorrectly.
Brady and fellow former quarterback-turned-broadcaster Drew Brees took part in a “Who’s In Third?” quiz. The segment asked them to identify quarterbacks ranked behind them in various statistical categories.
For the final question, the pair were asked who had the third-most career 300-yard passing games behind Brees and Brady. Brady confidently answered “Drew Brees,” despite Brees already occupying the top spot on the list. He immediately recognized the mistake and said, “Oh, s***!”
The comment was clearly heard by the studio panel. Michael Strahan reminded Brady that the program was live, while Curt Menefee joked that they would overlook the slip because Brady was still adjusting to broadcasting. The correct answer was Peyton Manning.
This was the second time this season Brady has used the same phrase on live television. In Week 2, he said it while reacting to a replay showing Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels dislocating his left elbow against the Cowboys. Brady later apologized, saying he had not expected the graphic injury.
Brady’s next assignment is the Detroit Lions versus Minnesota Vikings game.
