Brady extended gratitude to Mark Davis for welcoming him into the Raiders family and acknowledged Davis’s efforts to strengthen the organization. He also thanked Commissioner Roger Goodell and NFL owners for their support in realizing this dream. Brady recognized his partner Tom Wagner and his team—Don Yee, Jim Gray, Alex Spiro, and Larry Delson—for their crucial roles in achieving this career milestone. “I’m eager to contribute to the organization in any way I can, honoring the Raiders’ rich tradition while finding every possible opportunity to improve our offering to fans… and most importantly, WIN football games,” Brady concluded. This acquisition adds to Brady’s growing business portfolio, which includes stakes in the WNBA’s Las Vegas Aces, EFL Championship’s Birmingham City, Major League Pickleball’s Las Vegas Night Owls, and the E1 Series in Electric boat racing. As Brady transitions from player to owner, his involvement promises to bring a new dimension to the Raiders’ future.
