Overview
- Brady announced during Monday’s NFL coverage that he will suit up for the Fanatics Flag Football Classic at Kingdom Arena in Riyadh in March 2026.
- Published schedules conflict on the exact date, with reports citing either March 21 or March 26, 2026.
- Fanatics is organizing the one-day exhibition and says it will be televised globally as a high-profile flag football event.
- Star participants named include Rob Gronkowski, Christian McCaffrey, Saquon Barkley, CeeDee Lamb, Maxx Crosby, Sauce Gardner and Myles Garrett.
- Teams are slated to be led by coaches Pete Carroll, Sean Payton and Kyle Shanahan, and an NFL comeback for Brady remains unlikely given his Raiders ownership stake.
