In his 23 seasons in the NFL, Tom Brady has always been the symbol of excellence, winning seven Super Bowls and setting countless records in the process. The retired quarterback is starting his work as a broadcaster with FOX. But even though his debut went well, the greatest football player of all time is looking to improve.

Brady was a guest on The Herd with Colin Cowherd on FS1. Host Colin Cowherd asked him if he thought his debut was good. In response, Brady voiced his mind

I would say yes, and I would also say there's still so much room for improvement. "It's almost like when I was a player, I never felt like I did things the right way. There were games where I would go in afterward and say, 'God, I'm the worst quarterback in the NFL'. I'm sure I'm going to feel that way here at Fox where I finish a game and I go, 'I didn't even give them what they wanted.' It's a very challenging thing in your own mind.
Tom Brady said

Brady agreed that his debut was good. However, he wants to improve as he wants to be better.
