Former NFL quarterback Tom Brady interacts with running back Christian McCaffrey of the San Francisco 49ers prior to an NFL preseason game at Levi’s Stadium on Aug. 18, 2024, in Santa Clara, Calif.

In a move that should surprise absolutely no one, American football is headed to Saudi Arabia, and two key members of the San Francisco 49ers are slated to be a big part of it. 

Some of the biggest names in the NFL are set to head to Riyadh next year to take part in the Fanatics Flag Football Classic. Seven-time Super Bowl winner and current Fox Sports announcer Tom Brady is “coming out of retirement” for the event, ESPN’s Adam Schefter wrote on social media, and he’ll reportedly be joined by 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan and star running back Christian McCaffrey.
