Rob Gronkowski has faith that his former teammate Tom Brady will successfully call Super Bowl 2025.
“He’s ready,” the former tight end, who played with Brady on the New England Patriots from 2010 to 2018, exclusively told Page Six at the FanDuel Party powered by Spotify in New Orleans Friday night.
“He’s always prepared. He’s the best at preparation,” Gronkowski, 35, added of Brady, 47. “He’s the best at, you know, doing his best, and he’s just going to be ready.”
The pro athlete, who won three Super Bowls alongside the ex-quarterback, concluded that he is looking forward to watching his pal further cement himself in this new role, telling us, “I’m excited for it.”
After Brady officially retired from the national football league in February 2023, the seven-time Super Bowl champ landed a monster deal with Fox Sports to be a broadcaster.
The Post previously learned he will earn a whopping $375 million over a 10 year period for the gig.
“Over the course of this long-term agreement, Tom will not only call our biggest NFL games with Kevin Burkhardt, but will also serve as an ambassador for us, particularly with respect to client and promotional initiatives,” Fox Sports said in a statement at the time.
In September 2024, Brady made his debut for a Dallas Cowboys versus Cleveland Browns game.
The former NFL star was given advice by broadcasting greats before embarking on his live TV journey.
“In the football game, you talk about the play and then you have to be succinct to get out so when the offense breaks the huddle you turn it back to Burkhardt,” Bob Stenner, a longtime TV producer, previously told The Post. “Those are all mechanical things that he’ll get real quick.”
Brady’s skills were put to the test Thanksgiving weekend, when he had to call his first big game.
During the broadcast, the former Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback briefly mentioned how grateful he was to be providing commentary, saying, “I pinch myself. I get goosebumps.”
Ahead of Super Bowl 2025, in which the Kansas City Chiefs will face off against the Philadelphia Eagles, Brady has already started to give his hot takes on the two teams.
During an interview on “Fox & Friends” on Friday, he slammed claims that the referees show favoritism to the Chiefs, saying, “I think it’s just all BS. It’s just a bunch of noise.”
Super Bowl LIX will kick off on Sunday at 6:30 p.m. ET from Caesars Superdome in New Orleans. Brady will call the big game as an analyst with Kevin Burkhardt alongside him as the play-by-play announcer.
