She also complimented Fallon on his looks during the nine-minute interview, showcasing the charm that fans of her "Calm Down" podcast with Erin and Charissa have come to love. But her admiration for Brady didn't stop there; she went on to discuss the former Patriots QB and any potential concerns about him stepping into his new role.

"Everybody's worried about the commentating. I'm just like, 'The guy's skin'. I have to deal with this. Him being on my crew, I think'll he'll be great," she added.

Thompson made her view known that Brady succeeds at anything he turns his hand to. She asserted there should be no doubts about Brady's transition into an analyst role, thanks to his stellar NFL background.

There's been a mix of reactions and worries over Brady's shift from the field to the commentary box. Some gridiron enthusiasts question if the master tactician can captivate an audience in the style of Tony Romo or Al Michaels.

Other critics speculate online that Brady may not have the personality fit for the job, hinting at his somewhat reserved public persona and rare glimpses of his looser side displayed during his Netflix roast. Die-hard football devotees presume that Brady keeps his real character under wraps except during live programmes, preferring to portray his more widely accepted image as a family man and a dad.

Post the Netflix roast, Brady conceded that while he found the event enjoyable, in hindsight, he might not have gone ahead with it considering its impact on his kids. "I loved when the jokes were about me. I thought they were so fun. I didn't like how it affected my kids," Brady confessed.

He continued: "It's the bittersweet aspect of, when you do something you think is one way, and all of a sudden you realise 'I wouldn't do that again' because of how it affected [my family]."

He added: "It makes you, in some ways, a better parent going through it because sometimes we're naive or don't know, and when I signed up for that, I loved it when people were making fun of me."
