Tom Brady has officially become a minority owner of the Las Vegas Raiders. After winning the Super Bowl seven times as a player, the legend will try to conquer another championship ring from office.
However, Brady is also a football analyst with FOX and that might produce a huge dilemma according to NFL regulations. It’s important to remember that members of the broadcast have access to meetings with players and coach interviews.
Now, just before a blockbuster matchup between in which Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs will visit the 49ers, Brady faces big restrictions on the booth.
