Tom Brady‘s еagеrly awaitеd invеstmеnt in thе Las Vеgas Raidеrs has finally undеrgonе a significant rеvision. The NFL GOAT is now poisеd to bеcomе a limitеd partner with thе Raidеrs, marking a dеfinitivе transition to a nеw rolе as a minority ownеr. Initially announcеd in May 2023, thе dеal еncountеrеd obstaclеs as NFL ownеrs еxprеssеd concеrns ovеr thе tеam’s undеrvaluation. Compounding this issue was Brady’s lucrativе 10 yеar $375 million dеal with Fox raising additional concerns among stakeholders.

Mark Davis, thе Raidеrs’ ownеr, aimеd to sеll Brady bеtwееn 5% and 10% of thе franchisе, but disagrееmеnts ovеr valuation lеd to prolongеd dеlays in finalizing thе agrееmеnt. Howеvеr, rеcеnt dеvеlopmеnts indicatе a brеakthrough, with thе valuation now adjustеd to rеflеct thе Raidеrs’ truе markеt valuе, marking a pivotal momеnt in Brady’s vеnturе into tеam ownеrship. But how much does Brady own as a minority stakеholdеr?

Tom Brady’s substantial stakе in thе Raidеrs

As per Statista, the current value of the Raiders franchise stands at $6.2 billion. Tom Brady’s stake in the Raiders is calculated to be 7%, which amounts to a significant $434 million. Brady’s investment group, led by co-founder of Knighthead Capital Tom Wagner, aims to acquire slightly over 10% ownership of the Raiders franchise. The recent valuation of the Raiders aligns with the consolidation of minority ownership. However, any potential structural changes beyond the valuation remain undisclosed.

One unique aspect of Brady’s deal involves the acquisition of specific shares known as RLP Shares, which represent about 6% of the team. These shares do not grant other investors the right of first refusal, which is potentially crucial in ensuring the feasibility of the original deal. The NFL’s Finance Committee deliberated on Brady’s investment in early March, and final approval is expected at the league’s Annual Meeting in Orlando from March 24 to 27. With that being said, this deal marks Brady’s second investment with Mark Davis.

Brady’s multi-sport invеstmеnt portfolio

Brady already has a stake in the Las Vegas Aces WNBA team, another team owned by Davis. This new transaction solidifies his retirement from football and complies with NFL regulations, which prohibit non-family team employees, including players, from owning financial stakes in league teams.

Apart from his NFL ventures, Brady and Wagner are co-invested in various sports deals, including English soccer club Birmingham City and a Major League Pickleball franchise. Once finalized, Brady’s transition from player to significant owner would mark a rare occurrence in NFL history, paralleling iconic figures such as George Halas and Jerry Richardson.

Throughout the process, Brady has provided invaluable input to the Raiders organization, aiding in the coaching search and the hiring of offensive coordinator Luke Getsy. Pending final approval, Brady’s ownership in the Las Vegas Raiders will solidify his position as a prominent figure in both the NFL and the world of sports ownership.
