Overview
- Late in the fourth quarter, Brady tripped over Dickerson’s surname while describing Osa Odighizuwa’s sack of Jalen Hurts and quickly said, “Excuse me, Landon Dickerson.”
- Clips of the moment spread widely on X and Reddit, with some viewers accusing him of nearly uttering a slur and others calling it a simple tongue-tie.
- Brady is FOX’s lead color commentator in his second season under a reported 10-year, $375 million deal, a profile that heightens scrutiny of on-air miscues.
- Outlets noted this as another awkward broadcast moment for Brady this season, with prior coverage citing an alleged F-bomb, and there have been no announced sanctions or new statements.
- The slip came during a dramatic finish to Dallas–Philadelphia, which the Cowboys won 24-21 after erasing a 21-point deficit, amplifying attention on the broadcast.
