Brady, retired last February after 23 active seasons, would play a “passive” role as a shareholder and would not have operational control over the franchise’s business or sports decisions, ESPN said on his side.
This operation would not have any impact on the monumental contract signed by Brady to serve as a television commentator for the Fox network from the 2024 season, which it is estimated that it will earn him some 375 million dollars over the next decade.
Should negotiations be successful, Brady will become a partner on a second sports team for Raiders majority owner Mark Davis.
In March, the 45-year-old former quarterback acquired a minority stake in the Las Vegas Aces, the women’s basketball league (WNBA) champion owned by Davis.
