Tom Brady's LFG Player of the Game for Week 5: Cardinals QB Kyler Murray

For each game he broadcasts during the 2024 NFL season all the way through Super Bowl LIX, FOX Sports lead NFL analyst Tom Brady is choosing one standout star as his LFG Player of the Game.

To come in here and beat a great team in the 49ers, and it's a great way to bounce back. And I'm proud of the guys, man, we fought 60 minutes. Man, it was a hell of a win."
