Tom Brady is in the first year of an incredible 10-year, $375 million deal with FOX.
After hanging up his number 12 jersey, seven times Super Bowl The winner moved into the broadcast booth to be the network’s top color commentator alongside play-by-play announcer Kevin Burkhart.
this New England Patriots The legend in this booth, nine years later, has enjoyed a good and of course spectacular season.
Well-known sports media personality Dan Patrick thinks so win Due to its minority ownership with this stall, it eventually becomes one and one Vegas Attackers and conflict of interest.
Patrick: “I just see Brady as a finished person said. “He makes the Super Bowl and then decides to get more involved with the Raiders. I just don’t see Tom going one foot in, one foot out with the Raiders, he’s too much of a competitor.”
Brady’s 10 percent minority stake in the Raiders is up for grabs through 2024, and he is expected to play an active role in the team’s coaching search after Antonio Pearce was fired earlier this week.
according to reportsthe former signal caller has already called the Patriots’ former partner in crime Bill Belichick About the reunion in sin city.
Brady’s role as a minority owner of the NFL, in addition to being FOX’s primary commentator each week, has already caused several problems, with several strict rules being imposed on him to maintain the integrity of the league.
As an owner, Brady is prohibited from accessing other team’s facilities, watching practice, and participating in broadcast production sessions virtually and in person — all routine actions for a typical broadcaster.
Brady is also not allowed to criticize game officials and other clubs because of his affiliation with the Raiders.
The NFL GOAT has only been in the booth since September, but he’s already come close to breaking the personal rules placed upon him on numerous occasions.
During the second quarter of the Lions-Packers game in November, Detroit safety Brian Branch was ejected for a helmet-to-helmet hit on Green Bay wide receiver Bo Melton.
The umpires’ decision was not made first, but instead after officials in the game center notified the on-field officials of the hit.
“I don’t like that call at all,” Brady said on the show. “I mean, obviously it’s a penalty, but I think in games like this we have to be serious.”
Some fans believed it was Brady’s criticism of the officials — one of the key restrictions he imposed as team owner.
However, the NFL ultimately decided that Brady had not broken any rules and therefore decided not to punish him.
Brady’s role was also discussed after the interview with the Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes.
The interview focused on personal matters, but league executives were concerned it may have inadvertently crossed conflict-of-interest lines.
At the time, NFL owners reportedly considered stricter rules to prevent potential competitive imbalances.
Brady, a businessman who also owns a minority stake in England’s football club Birmingham Citymay end up concluding that the tightrope he has to walk as a broadcaster/owner isn’t worth the trouble.
He’s also ruthlessly competitive and may decide that focusing on turning the Raiders’ fortunes around is ultimately how he wants to spend most of his time.
That said, despite Dan Patrick’s suggestion, there has been no suggestion from Brady himself that he wants to move away from the booth.
It’s also unclear how easily he can get out of a 10-year, $375 million deal with FOX if he wants to.
As it stands, Brady will continue to hold both jobs and is scheduled to be on call for Sunday’s Packers-Eagles playoff game in Philadelphia.
A week later he will be on duty for the divisional round of games before calling the NFC Championship Game and Super Bowl LIX in February.
