Tom Brady calls the first Thanksgiving game while ex Gisele Bündchen’s children vacation in Costa Rica

Tom Brady spent Thanksgiving in the broadcast booth.

The NFL analyst, who signed a 10-year, $375 million deal with Fox, called his first Thanksgiving Day game as host on Thursday while his children celebrated the holiday in Costa Rica with his ex Gisele Bündchen .

The legendary quarterback, 47, joined play-by-play broadcaster Kevin Burkhardt live from Arlington, Texas, for the Dallas Cowboys’ game against the New York Giants.

On Thursday, Brady called the Turkey Day roster for the first time, and executives reportedly had a few specific things they wanted him to work on.

Fox bosses reportedly wanted the seven-time Super Bowl champion to focus on what was actually happening on the field, rather than intangibles like leadership and responsibility.

According to Puck, the producers required him to talk about the X’s and O’s and “why a play worked or failed.” Overall, they reportedly believe he has “gotten better over the last few games” and are “confident he will continue to improve.”

The former New England Patriots quarterback flew to Texas a few days early to attend the Knicks-Mavericks contest in Dallas while his children spent time with their mother.

Earlier this week, a source confirmed to Page Six that Bündchen would be taking her 14-year-old son Benjamin and 11-year-old daughter on vacation to Costa Rica. The pregnant supermodel is expecting her first child with boyfriend Joaquim Valente.

“Gisele took the kids and traveled to Costa Rica with Joaquim to spend the holidays together,” the insider shared.

“Tom supports us and this is the agreement he and Gisele agreed to.”

However, they noted that the NFL alum “will still have plenty of time for his children during the holiday season.”

Bündchen and Brady announced their divorce in October 2022 after 13 years of marriage. About eight months later, she moved on with her jiu-jitsu instructor.

Brady is also father to 17-year-old son Jack, whom he shares with ex-Brigadet Moynahan. The teenager also apparently spent the holidays with his mother as Brady was busy with work.

Even though Brady was away from his children, the trio was still on his mind.

“Grateful for this crew ❤️,” he captioned an Instagram story of his children on Thursday. “Happy Thanksgiving 🦃.”
