THE GOAT for a reason! Tom Brady knows how to keep the cash flowing. He might have retired from the NFL. But his playbook off the field is anything but empty. From a $375 million Fox Sports deal to co-owning the Raiders. Then add in his investments in the WNBA’s Las Vegas Aces, an English Soccer club, and his ever-growing Brady Brand empire.

Some might say Brady has been more busier than he was back in his TB12 days. But could all this mean Brady never actually dons the broadcast headset? Enter NFL reporter Richard Deitsch with a take hotter than a Florida training camp: Brady won’t just sideline his 10-year deal with Fox—he’ll walk away entirely before the 2025 NFL season.

“I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: Brady’s got too many irons in the fire,” Deitsch claims. “With his focus shifting to NFL ownership and his production company, don’t be surprised if he goes all-in off the field.”

Is it bold? Absolutely. But is it impossible? Not really. Brady’s delayed start with Fox already raised a few eyebrows, and his growing involvement with the Raiders seems more like a deep pass than a side hustle.

Since snagging a 10% ownership stake in the Raiders, Brady’s been anything but a passive investor. Raiders owner Mark Davis doesn’t just see Brady as a figurehead—he’s a critical piece in revamping a 4-12 team stuck in neutral. “He’s competitive and very thorough in everything he does,” Davis said.

So, if Deitsch’s prediction holds true, Brady could redefine his post-NFL legacy—not as a broadcaster but as a power player in the boardroom. Would you bet against him?

The Raiders might need Tom Brady more than anyone could have expected

Let’s be honest: the Raiders are standing at a crossroads, and Tom Brady might be holding the map. The team’s head coaching situation is murkier than a Sunday afternoon in London. With “Black Monday” just around the corner—the infamous day when underperforming NFL coaches usually get the boot—Antonio Pierce’s future is under serious scrutiny.

Pierce stepped into the spotlight after Josh McDaniels was sent packing on Halloween, with stars like Davante Adams and Maxx Crosby rallying to keep him in charge. But here’s the kicker: Pierce’s record now mirrors McDaniels’ at 9-16. Sure, he’s riding a two-game win streak, but is it enough? The Chargers are up next, and that game could tip the scales.

Enter Brady. The Raiders’ new minority owner isn’t just sitting in a luxury suite sipping Gatorade. NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero and Peter Schrager have already spilled the tea: Brady will likely have a say in the team’s coaching decision. And if the rumors about targeting Mike Vrabel—a former teammate and close friend of Brady—are true, TB12’s influence could be pivotal.

Continuity has been the Raiders’ Achilles’ heel. They’ve cycled through head coaches like a team stuck on fourth-and-long. If they move on from Pierce, the next hire needs to stick. Brady’s experience playing under coaching legends like Bill Belichick (did not just play with him, built the Pats Dynasty with him) means he knows a thing or two about what it takes to build a winning culture.

The Raiders can’t afford another misstep. And with Brady in their corner, maybe—just maybe—they’ll finally get it right.
