Tom Brady’s purchase of Las Vegas Raiders stake not yet finalized

Purchasing a stake in an NFL team would effectively prevent Brady from ever playing for the Raiders or any other team again, according to the league’s recently updated charter.

Until then, the door remains open for Brady, who is currently a free agent, although at the time he has repeatedly said the door to a return has been closed.

Any limited partner in an NFL team, regardless of how many shares it intends to purchase, must be approved by a three-fourths majority vote of the owners. A vote on Brady’s pending acquisition of the Raiders has not yet taken place and the deal is still being reviewed under normal procedures for approving ownership, sources said.

Brady spoke about his career in the past tense during the halftime ceremony of the Patriots’ Week 1 loss to the Eagles in Foxborough, Mass., where he was greeted by the Patriots. Recognition, he led this team to win 6 Super Bowl championships and 17 division championships. 19 seasons.

“All of our lives take us on different journeys. They take us to different places. They bring different people into our lives,” Brady said after playing his final three seasons in Tampa Bay. After officially retiring, he said on September 24. 10. “But one thing I know for sure and will never change is that I am a lifelong patriot.”
