The greatest NFL player ever is trying to become a part owner for the Las Vegas Raiders for almost a year now. Legend Tom Brady has had to jump through multiple hoops to try and buy this stake in the organization, and now he will face another set back to become an NFL owner. In addition to having to terminate endorsements Brady will have more to do if he wants to be an owner.
NFL legend Tom Brady Faces Another Setback
The sale for Brady to buy the stake in the organization hinges on approval from a vote of all the NFL owners. However, the owners are not planning on discussing Brady’s potential ownership in the next meeting. According to the Washington Post, the owners are not planning on discussing a potential ownership from Brady when they meet next week in Orlando.
The owners reportedly have an issue with Brady becoming an analyst for FOX, and they worry about a potential owner being involved in commenting games. Brady, along with Tom Wagner, are attempting to buy 10% of the team.
Tom Brady May Have To Wait A Bit Longer To Become An Owner
The price that owner Mark Davis is attempting to sell it to Brady and Wagner is far lower than the estimated $620 million which is associated with the current valuation for the Raiders. The NFL owners are expected to discuss potential rule changes and new safety measures this upcoming meeting and it appears that Brady’s bid to join the esteemed group of owners will have to wait a bit longer.
The owners do not seem to be in any hurry to add Brady as the newest owner and they may not approve the sale of this heavily discounted rate that Brady is getting. Additionally they have an issue with his FOX job. So Brady may have to terminate his monstrous FOX contract a bit early to get in as an owner.
