The legend and the one who is considered the best athlete in history, Michael Jordanreturned to the courts, but now as an analyst of the best basketball in the world, so there was no better time to compare the millionaire salary he will have with what he earns Tom Brady being an NFL analyst.
The Fox network knew that it could not miss the possibility of having Tom Brady, the winningest player in the history of the Super Bowl with seven titles, as an analyst and commentator, so they gave him a contract for ten years and $375 million dollars, which is $37.5 million a year, to commentate on the NFL.
While Michael Jordan will earn US$40 million annually as an NBA analyst on NBC. This means that the Chicago Bulls legend will receive $2.5 million more than the former quarterback.
“I am very excited to see the NBA again on NBC. The NBA on NBC was a significant part of my career and I am excited to be a special contributor to the project. I look forward to seeing everyone when the NBA on NBC,” said Michael Jordan.
Despite Michael Jordan finished undefeated in the NBA Finals by winning six titles with the Bulls, Tom Brady surpasses him in championships with seven victories in the Super Bowl. However, the former quarterback did lose in the Super Bowl with three losses in ten appearances.
The mystery is finally over. Jordan appeared this Tuesday at the start of the 2025-26 NBA season with a series titled ‘MJ: Insights to Excellence’ and the first day of the campaign started off strong with unexpected confessions and some words that pointed to the LeBron era.
“I haven’t caught a ball in years (…) I was at the Ryder Cup (Golf). I rented a house from the owner. He went to take photos. I had grandchildren, and I welcomed them, greeted them and thanked them for allowing me to stay in the house, which had a basketball court. He said, ‘I want you to shoot a free throw.’ “The reason is that those kids heard stories from their parents about what I did years ago,” Michael Jordan confessed before the message arrived for LeBron James, Stephen Curry and the entire NBA.
With the competitive spirit that led him to win six titles with the Chicago Bulls in the same number of finals, Michael Jordan sent a strong message to LeBron and Curry about whether he would like to play against them in this era of the NBA. “I wish I could take a magic pill, put on shorts and go out and play basketball today, because that’s who I am. That kind of competition and competitiveness is what I’m passionate about and I miss it,” MJ said.
