In a shocking turn of events, Tom Brady is now a minority owner of the Las Vegas Raiders, as approved by the league’s group of owners in a unanimous vote. This move has left many wondering what Brady’s role will be in the organization moving forward.
Mark Davis, the owner of the Raiders, is eager to involve Brady in the team’s major football decisions. Despite facing broadcasting restrictions for Fox Sports due to his ownership stake, Davis sees Brady as a valuable asset to help guide the team in the right direction.
When asked about Brady’s new role with the franchise, Davis emphasized that while Brady won’t be throwing passes for the Raiders, he could play a crucial role in selecting the team’s quarterback of the future. Currently, the Raiders are in need of a long-term solution at the quarterback position.
Gardner Minshew and Aidan O’Connell have both seen playing time this season, but neither has solidified themselves as the answer for the Raiders. With a 2–4 record and recent trade of Davante Adams, the Raiders are likely looking towards the 2025 NFL draft or free agency to find their future quarterback.
Brady’s ownership stake in the Raiders adds an interesting twist to his already illustrious career. With his experience and knowledge of the game, Brady could be the missing piece that the Raiders need to turn their season around and set themselves up for success in the years to come.
