The sporting legends shook hands and embraced at midfield before Tyson playfully jabbed TB12 on the chest with a gentle left hand.

"Are you a little scared?" Brady could be heard asking Tyson at one point, presumably referencing the heavyweight boxing legend's upcoming bout with YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul.

"I should be," Tyson responded while chuckling.

After chopping it up with the New England Patriots legend, Tyson, who later put on a Micah Parsons No. 11 Cowboys jersey, could be seen walking over to Paul who is also in attendance for the game in Arlington, Texas on Sunday.

The pair had an intense stare down before shaking hands and heading off in different directions.

Paul and Tyson are set to face off inside the ring in an upcoming boxing fight at the AT&T Stadium - home of the $10 billion valued Cowboys.

The bout is scheduled for November 15 and will be streamed globally on Netflix.

They were initially slated to duke it out on July 20, however, Tyson was forced out of the contest after suffering an ulcer flare-up on a flight to Los Angeles.

Tyson's representatives claimed he had made a full recovery but further inspections from doctors deemed him medically unfit to compete this summer.

With Tyson out, Paul instead K'OD Mike Perry to move to 11-1 in the fighting game.

Paul, whose second pro fight was on the undercard of Tyson's exhibition clash with Roy Jones Jr in 2020, has now fought twice this year already having also beaten Ryan Bourland with a first-round stoppage in March.

Tyson meanwhile, who was once one of the most destructive heavyweights in boxing history, hasn't been in the ring for four years.

The last time the 58-year-old was in the ring was in 2020 when he fought former four-division world champion Roy Jones Jr in an exhibition match inside Staples Center in Los Angeles.

The fight ended in a controversial split draw.

Brady, meanwhile, made his eagerly-awaited Fox debut last week during the Cowboys' 33-17 road victory over the Cleveland Browns.

The 47-year-old is widely regarded as the greatest quarterback in NFL history having won a record seven Super Bowls.

Brady was given a $375 million contract by Fox to be in the broadcasting booth but his debut last week was met with mixed reviews.

Many felt he was flat and uninspiring, including NFL RedZone host Scott Hanson, who took a lighthearted jab at Brady.

"Oh come on,” Hanson said. “Brady has gotta get more excited than that in the booth.”

"This was unfair & inconsiderate by me," Hanson tweeted. "Yes, I was saying it tongue in cheek - but I didn’t calculate how it may come across.

"@TomBrady, I apologize. I promise I am rooting you on in this new venture!"

Brady took it well though, and responded: "This rookie appreciates you @scotthanson!"

"No apology necessary my man, life is too short to not have fun! We’re officially on 70 yarder watch and I’m gonna spike my headset when it happens."

The Birmingham City minority owner is in the booth for the Cowboys once again this week for their clash with the Saints.

It was an afternoon to forget for America's Team, who suffered the biggest shock of the season so far at the hands of a rampant Saints team.

The Saints ran out 44-19 victory over the Cowboys to move to 2-0 for the season.

Running back Alvin Kamara was the hero once again, leading the way with 115 yards and three rushing touchdown. He also had a receiving TD.
