Tom Brady sparks outrage with offensive term on Fox broadcast

Tom Brady raised some eyebrows with his commentary while calling the Bills-Seahawks game on Fox Sports on Sunday.

Brady — who’s in the first season of his 10-year, $375 million contract with the network — was discussing the growth of Bills quarterback Josh Allen, when he said the two-time Pro Bowler previously played like a “spaz” before he became more controlled under center.

“Sometimes he played like a spaz, like a grade-schooler on a sugar high,” Brady said on the broadcast towards the end of the first quarter while Buffalo had a 7-0 lead over Seattle. “But now he’s controlled the chaos. He’s like a storm coming into town and you don’t want that storm coming into this town.”

The term spaz is a shortened form of the word spastic, which means clumsy, stupid, or losing physical or emotional control.

It is used in some circumstances to describe medical conditions.
