Davis, Brady Come to Terms on Raiders Minority Stake
HENDERSON, Nev.--If you are tuned into Twitter, then perhaps you saw some confusion inside the Raider Nation as word began to trickle out that the greatest quarterback in National Football League history, Tom Brady, and the owner of the Las Vegas Raiders, Mark Davis, had come to terms for Brady to buy a minority interest in the Silver and Black.
Previously we reported that the two parties were discussing the move, but now they are waiting for the National Football League to finalize the deal.
The confusion on Twitter has tangible.
Some fans were thrilled to have a National Football League ICON like Brady joining their team, as long as he atones for the infamous tuck-rule game:
Others bemoaned the end of their beloved franchise:
Either way, Brady's decision to purchase a minority interest in the Las Vegas Raiders will likely impact the organization significantly. For sure, it puts Davis squarely center stage in the ravenous Raider Nation's debate on the team's future.
As perhaps the greatest quarterbacks in NFL history, Brady brings a wealth of experience and knowledge to the table that could help the Raiders improve their on-field performance. His ownership stake might also make the team attractive to high-profile free agents who want to play for a winning organization. Additionally, Brady's involvement with the team could help improve its overall brand, leading to increased revenue and fan interest.
It is worth noting that this is not the first time Brady has been linked to NFL ownership. In the past, he was reportedly set to become a minority owner of the Miami Dolphins before a lawsuit involving Coach Brian Flores put that plan on hold.
Nevertheless, Brady's decision to purchase a stake in the Raiders is a significant development in the NFL world and a sign of his continued commitment to the sport even after retiring.
Whether it will ultimately lead to success on the field remains to be seen. Still, there is no doubt that Brady's involvement will bring a new level of excitement and intrigue to the Las Vegas Raiders organization.
The Raiders' offseason workout schedule is as follows:
OTA Offseason workouts: May 22-23, May 25, May 31-June 2, June 12-15
Mandatory Minicamp: June 6-8
