Brady, 45, has signed a 10-year, $375million deal with FOX Sports to become the network's football analyst.

But he won't jump behind the mic until the fall of 2024 as the NFL icon reportedly wants to make one last attempt to win back his ex-wife, Gisele Bundchen.

Recent rumors also claimed the seven-time Super Bowl champ could venture into comedy before joining FOX Sports.

TMZ says those reports are false and Brady won't become a stand-up comic.

But the former New England Patriots and Tampa Bay Buccaneers star might still share a laugh or two with his fans in the near future.

Brady is believed to be working with Netflix on a roast special, TMZ claims.

The entertainment news site claims the show even has a tentative title: The Greatest Roast of All Time.

The legendary quarterback has shown he likes to poke fun at himself.

In 2005, Brady sang and danced in a skit about his off-the-field talents while hosting Saturday Night Live.

He's also publicly made jokes about his age and retirement.

But right now, Brady's focus is on spending time with his family.

He is currently on a winter getaway with kids Jack, 15, Benjamin, 13, and Vivian, 10.

One video from the trip showed young Vivian conducting a scientific experiment at their chalet.

Walking outside with a mug of steaming liquid, presumably water, she told her dad: "This will turn into ice when I throw it up in the air."

Brady responded with "I don't believe it," before she perfectly demonstrated her plan, with someone in the background exclaiming: "That's so cool!"

He shared this experiment along with the caption: "Science is fun [laughing emojis]."
