Tom Brady may face Fox restrictions if he becomes Las Vegas Raiders part-owner, per report
View Date:2024-12-23 21:13:15
If Tom Brady does become a partial owner of the Las Vegas Raiders, it'll make his broadcasting job quite the challenge.
ESPN reported the NFL will put the new Fox analyst under several restrictions if his application to become an owner is approved. The possibility of it was discussed at the league meetings in Minneapolis on Tuesday, the outlet reported.
In addition to being subjected to the league's anti-gambling and tampering policy, should Brady be an owner, he will be prevented from:
- Entering another team's facility
- Watching practices
- Attending broadcast production meetings, in-person or virtually
- Criticizing officials or teams
While Brady still will be able to call games on Fox, it would be without participating one of most critical aspects of the job. Meetings with coaches and players gives the commentary team additional insight for the contest they will broadcast. Other Fox members working with Brady would not be subjected to any of the restrictions.

The limits could complicate Brady's decision to become an owner for Las Vegas. It was first reported in May 2023 Brady was in discussions to join the the team's ownership group, months after he retired from playing professional football. But Brady's bid is still stuck being discussed by the league’s finance committee, the first step needed to become an official owner.
It is unknown what percentage of the Raiders franchise Brady would obtain, or how much he is paying for it. During the NFL owners meetings in Orlando in late March, an NFL owner who requested anonymity told USA TODAY Sports that he believed the conflict-of-interest question had been resolved. The owner did not want to be identified due to the sensitive nature of the issue.
Brady is set to begin the first season of his 10-year, $375 million contract at Fox alongside Kevin Burkhardt on the network's No. 1 team. The seven-time Super Bowl winning quarterback's first assignment will be the Week 1 matchup between the Dallas Cowboys and Cleveland Browns.
