Without prompting, Brady mentioned two teams by
name -- the New England Patriots, his old team, and the Las
Vegas Raiders, whom he is aiming to become a minority owner. He
pointed out an NBA analog, as Michael Jordan became a part owner
of the Washington Wizards before coming out of retirement to
play for Washington for two seasons.
"I'm not opposed to it," Brady said on the "Deep Cut" podcast.
"I don't know if they are going to let me if I become an owner
of an NFL team. I'm always going to be in good shape. I'll
always be able to throw the ball. So, to come in for a little
bit, like (Jordan) coming back, I don't know if they would let
me. But I wouldn't be opposed to it."
Brady, who is also scheduled to begin working as a Fox Sports
broadcaster this fall, reached an agreement in May 2023 to join
the Raiders' ownership group. The NFL has yet to complete its
approval process.
Brady, who announced his retirement in February 2023, is
regarded as the best quarterback of all time after winning six
Super Bowls with the Patriots and a seventh with the Tampa Bay
Buccaneers while breaking virtually every NFL passing record.
He also retired on Feb. 1, 2022, but changed course just 40 days
later, coming back for a third season with the Buccaneers.
