When will Tom Brady's broadcasting contract kick in with FOX?

Days after his retirement, Brady announced that his stint with FOX would begin in 2024:

"I think for me, I want to be great at what I do. Even talking last week with the people at FOX Sports and the leadership there allowing me to start my FOX opportunity in the fall of 2024 is something that's great for me.

"Take some time to really learn, become great at what I want to do, become great at thinking about the opportunity and making sure I don't rush into anything. I think when people really bet on me, one thing about my career whether that was when I was drafted by the Patriots or signing in free agency with the Bucs, I wanted to be fully committed and I never wanted to let people down."

Brady's love for football is set to bring him back to the game, but this time, he won't be on the field.
