Tom Brady is easily the greatest player in the history of the NFL. Overall, he has seven Super Bowl rings and countless records. However, he is no longer an active player. For the first time since 2000, we will be subjected to an NFL season without Brady. Ultimately, this is going to take a lot of getting used to for a lot of NFL fans. Although, for those who hate Brady, this is definitely something to be thankful for. Now, he will no longer be able to terrorize some of your favorite teams.
Subsequently, he has a lot to think about in terms of his life away from the game. Of course, he has his contract with Fox which is supposed to kick in as of 2024. Although reports circulated claiming that he would back out of the deal, Brady appears to be on track to hit the booth. Furthermore, he has been tied to the Las Vegas Raiders in a potential ownership role. Today, Tom Brady got one step closer to officially being an owner in the league that he loves.
Tom Brady Is Still Active, Even In Retirement
According to TMZ, Tom Brady and the Raiders have agreed to a deal. This would help make him a minority owner in the team. However, 75 percent of the league will have to approve the sale. This means 24 of the league's other owners are going to have to vote yes on Brady. Although, it doesn't seem like that will be an issue. Brady is a respected individual, and there is no reason for anyone to deny him this opportunity.
For now, it remains to be seen what kind of role he will have with the team. Perhaps he will get to make decisions on their quarterbacks and maybe even the rest of the offense. Or, he will simply take a backseat and allow his investment to accrue interest. Let us know what you think of Brady's latest move, in the comments below.
