The former Pro Bowl tight end was a fan favorite and called Super Bowl LVII.

But Fox signed Brady to a 10-year deal worth $375 million.

And the seven-time Super Bowl champion went straight into the top team.

Olsen is now part of the second crew alongside Joe Davis.

He missed out to Brady on calling Super Bowl LIX in New Orleans, Louisiana this year.

But speaking to “Bussin With The Boys,” Olsen said he had no hard feelings towards Brady.

“I have zero animosity toward Tom,” he insisted.

“I don’t sit there saying ‘I hope their broadcast stinks’ at all.

“That is independent from my personal aspirations of, I want to take this to the highest level I can.

“I want to call Super Bowls. I want to get to a top crew.


“I want to continue to elevate and see how high in the industry that I can get.

“Those things can both simultaneously exist.

“My ascension individually does not have to come at the expense of him.”

Olsen continued, “It does not have to come in the animosity toward him.

“If he has a long career in this industry, so can I.

“Those two things are not mutually exclusive. That’s the way I look at it.

“Tom and I’s relationship, both professionally and personally, is really good.

“We’ve formed a better personal relationship since he joined Fox.

“We’ve spent a lot of time on the phone, talking broadcasting but also talking about raising teenage daughters.

“We have a lot of other things in common.”
