Will Raiders Owner Tom Brady Help Find Club’s Next QB?

Tom Brady knows better than anybody what it takes to rise above as a successful NFL quarterback. Can he help the Las Vegas Raiders find one?

The NFL officially approved Brady for a 5% ownership stake in the franchise Tuesday as he adds yet another tab to his football resume. He’ll have to make significant adjustments to his broadcast preparations for FOX, though Brady earns another opportunity to impact football. That leads to the question: where will he most impact the Raiders?

NFL Media’s Judy Battista floated a thought from Las Vegas owner Mark Davis following the approval of Brady’s ownership bid on Tuesday.

“Mark Davis on Tom Brady becoming a minority owners, says although Brady can’t play QB for them, he can help them select a QB in the future,” Battista shared on X.

The Raiders started this season 2-4, which currently has them in line for the No. 11 overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, per Tankathon. Davis’ comments suggests that if the Raiders move to free agency or the draft to find their next franchise quarterback, Brady would have at least some intake in the selection as well as the vetting process when meeting with potential fits.

For now, the Raiders prepare for a Week 7 matchup when they visit the Los Angeles Rams at SoFi Stadium on Sunday.
