Tom Bradys pending bid to become part owner of the Las Vegas Raiders has triggered restrictions on his access to teams around NFL as part of its role as a Fox Sports broadcaster, a league spokesperson said Thursday.
Brady is not permitted to participate in in-person or online broadcast production meetings and may not have access to team facilities, players or coaches. Fox personnel are not subject to these restrictions.
He must also abide by league rules and regulations that prohibit public criticism of officials and other clubs, but are allowed to broadcast Raiders games.
Brady, a seven-time Super Bowl-winning quarterback, works with play-by-play announcer Kevin Burkhardt on Fox’s premier NFL broadcast team. He signed a 10-year deal with the network in 2022, but this is Brady’s first season announcing games.
His effort to become one minority owner in the Raiders organization has been scrutinized by league owners since Brady submitted his bid in May 2023. The owners did not vote on the matter when they met in March in Orlando, Fla., due to concerns that Brady was getting too much of a discount from Las Vegas majority owner Mark Davis .
Brady owns part of WNBA’s Las Vegas Aceswhich is also owned by Davis.
