Tom Brady, a part-owner of the Las Vegas Raiders, is now allowed to join TV production meetings. Previously, he was barred from these meetings because his ownership stake could create a conflict of interest. With the new NFL season approaching, the rule has been updated to allow his participation, according to News 3 Las Vegas.
Tom Brady is still not allowed to attend team practices, a rule meant to maintain competitive balance. NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell approved this rule change after Brady retired and moved into broadcasting while also being a part-owner. Last season, during the Lions-Commanders playoff game, Brady did not name the Lions’ offensive coordinator, who was being considered for the Raiders’ head coaching job. The league implemented the rule to avoid similar situations, as reported by Bleacher Report.
Tom Brady, who is not allowed to attend practices, will continue working in the broadcast booth with Kevin Burkhardt and sideline reporters Erin Andrews and Tom Rinaldi. They called Super Bowl 59 for Fox, and Brady will provide analysis on playbooks and team strategies again during the upcoming season.
