Chiefs TE Travis Kelce says FOX 'kinda did Greg Olsen dirty' with Tom Brady set to start
Denny Medley-USA TODAY Sports

Tom Brady's broadcasting career is set to start. 

And the Kelce brothers took a moment to talk about it during their latest New Heights podcast. However, Travis Kelce couldn't help but also mention FOX's handling of Greg Olsen.

With Brady set to come in, Olsen is on the outs. And while Brady signed a 10-year, $375 million contract to be the lead analyst for the Fox Sports, he decided to take a year off after retiring for a second time. So Olsen remained with the network for one more year. 

But now that Brady's in, he's out. 

“I love my guy Greg Olsen and they kind of did him dirty over there at FOX. But it’s Tom Brady, what can you do?,” Travis said on New Heights. “And Greg does a (expletive) tremendous job. He called our Super bowl game and he’s (expletive) fantastic doing that.”

Olsen received a lot of praise for his efforts at FOX from everyone, and the Kelce brothers happen to agree with it all. 

"I think Greg he’s phenomenal at it," Jason responded. "You can tell he makes it a point to really know what he’s talking about.

Olsen joined FOX after retiring from the NFL in 2020. In 2021 he started, working as a full-time commentator. 

So it's clear that if FOX doesn't find a place for him, another network should swoop right in and take him. They will be getting a good analyst.
