Tom Brady Agrees to Become Minority Owner of Las Vegas Raiders
Tom Brady may be done playing the game of football, but that doesn't mean that he will have his hands all over the NFL now that he is retired. The first venture where Brady will remain involved comes when he is set to begin his 10-year/$375 million contract as a broadcaster for FOX. Now, it appears likely that Brady will have even more of a touch with what is happening, albeit for a lone franchise.
According to Sports Illustrated's Albert Breer, the future first-ballot hall of famer, Brady, has agreed to a deal to become a minority of the Las Vegas Raiders.

As Breer mentioned, Brady will have to wait until the NFL either approves or declines the transaction - which most likely will not occur during the NFL's spring meetings. Breer also notes that Brady already has a working relationship with Vegas owner, Mark Davis, due to their partnership with the WNBA team, the Las Vegas Aces.
At this point and time, it is unknown how much stake in the franchise Brady is planning on becoming an owner of, but even at the least Brady would be staring down a $40-$60 million check to purchase his stake.
The last time rumors swirled around Brady possibly becoming more entrenched with an NFL organization came back in 2021-2022 when there was major speculation that Brady was looking at becoming a limited partner with the Miami Dolphins. The speculation continued even more to the point that if that were to happen Brady would then head to South Beach to become the team's starting quarterback as well.
Obviously, that didn't pan out, but it makes you think - if Brady does indeed get his offer to purchase a minority stake in the Raiders approved, will he once again come out of retirement to continue his legacy in Las Vegas?
