After Tom Brady was approved as a 5 percent owner of the Las Vegas Raiders las week, the NFL world is eager to understand the implications of this move in football terms.
It appears that Brady will eventually aim for a more prominent role within the franchise and its decision making, but as of now a standing NFL rule prohibits his direct involvement.
"NFL bylaws dictate that minority owners cannot be employed (officially, at least) by teams, unless they're related to the principal owner," said Sports Illustrated's Albert Breer.
