Tom Brady joins the <a href="https://www.world-today-news.com/nfl-roster-cut-deadline-im-liveticker/" title="NFL: Roster Cut Deadline im LIVETICKER”>Las Vegas Raiders NFL franchise, the team has been waiting for a Super Bowl victory since 1983
Tom Brady is now not only a TV expert in the NFL, but also the team owner of the Las Vegas Raiders. The most successful professional in NFL history received approval from the other owners on Tuesday to buy a five percent stake in the Raiders. Owner Mark Davis and Brady had basically agreed on the deal months ago. Among other things, Brady’s role as a TV expert for the Fox channel led to a long period of reflection.
In preparation for the entry of the seven-time Super Bowl champion, Brady has been banned from participating in production meetings or gaining access to the facilities of other teams or their coaches and players since the start of the season and his work as a TV expert. He is allowed to comment on Raiders games, but he is not allowed to criticize referees. This rule applies to all team owners in the league.
“I’m greedy”
“I am eager to contribute to this organization in every way and honor its great tradition,” Brady wrote on . Majority shareholder Davis said in a statement that he hoped Brady would be helpful in selecting a quarterback in the future “and possibly training him as well.”
Should the 47-year-old Brady come out of retirement and make a comeback in the NFL a second time, he would have to sell his shares. Brady is already co-owner of the WNBA’s Las Vegas Aces. Raiders owner Mark Davis also holds most of the shares in the women’s basketball team that won the title in the last two years. Brady also invests in the English third division soccer team Birmingham City.
The Raiders have been waiting for a Super Bowl win since 1983. The Raiders have not won a playoff game since losing in the Super Bowl in January 2003 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The team, which has lost four of six games this season, parted ways with star receiver Davante Adams on Tuesday, who will play for the New York Jets after a trade.
