Fox Sports analyst Tom Brady had to apologize on Sunday after accidentally cursing on live television. He let it slip watching the replay of Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels suffering a serious injury.

The moment occurred on the final play of the first half. Daniels took the snap and began to drop back to throw a pass, but he stumbled after apparent contact from an offensive guard. As he put his hand down to stabilize himself, his elbow bent the wrong direction.
"Oh, s—-," Brady said while watching the replay. "Excuse me. I was not expecting to see that."
"Oh, shit."

The Commanders took Daniels to the locker room as the first half of Sunday's game against the rival Cowboys ended. The team quickly ruled him out for the rest of the game with a dislocated elbow. Though head coach Dan Quinn later clarified that X-rays showed Daniels had avoided a fracture.
"Once I know an update that we can move forward with then I'll give you that," head coach Dan Quinn said after the Commanders lost 37-20 to the Cowboys.
"Man, are we bummed for him. He was really playing his ass off. We will rally so hard around Marcus (Mariota, backup QB) until Jayden's back. That's what we talked about as a team."
The injury is not the only example of Brady saying something unexpected during Sunday afternoon's game between the Commanders and Cowboys. Although the other example came under happier circumstances.
The second incident came during the fourth quarter of the game. Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott dropped back on second-and-12 from his own 27-yard line.

He launched a deep pass down the right sideline to wide receiver CeeDee Lamb, who caught it between two defenders around the Commanders' 39-yard line.
"Absolute piss missile up the sideline," Brady said while watching the replay. "(Mike) Sainristil's still sneaking in Cover 2, and CeeDee settles in that hole. (Quan) Martin can't get over there in time."
