NFL insider reveals shocking extent of Tom Brady's Raiders influence... despite only being minority owner 

NFL insider Dianna Russini lifted the lid on Tom Brady’s involvement in the Las Vegas Raiders’ offseason rebuild after becoming a minority owner.

After booking a seat on the Raider’s brᴀss, Brady saw the team suffer another tragic season, which included a 4-13 record and the firing of head coach Antonio Pierce.

To welcome winning ways to Sin City, the Raiders hired former Buccaneers executive John Spytek as their general manager and Pete Carroll as their new head coach.

Both have Super Bowls under their resume and connections to Brady before getting hired.

Speaking on The Ryen Russillo Podcast, Russini made claims that Brady has been the captain of the ship in Vegas despite being a minority owner. The former ESPN reporter also revealed that Brady’s TB12 programs are being put in place for players.

‘Let’s just start with making it really clear that Tom Brady is running everything in Vegas,’ Russini said. ‘It’s all Tom Brady. I think there’s some rumors, some chatter — I’m telling you, it’s all Tom Brady there.

‘I mean, even his own TB12 programs are being installed, so to speak. Alex Guerrero is out there. He’s going to be working with some of the players.’

‘He is trying to do it and change the Raiders — and have a tremendous amount of influence on them. I’m sure you and I can probably debate whether or not that’s a good thing or not. My instinct is, yeah, the guy knows how to win, obviously,’ she added.

‘Why not listen to him? I’d rather listen to Tom Brady calling everything than Mark Davis — no disrespect to Mark. Tom has a thought, an idea; he understands what it takes.’

While the two urgent and important vacancies have been filled, Brady and the Raiders have more work to do with free agency approaching.

Brady’s involvement and ownership came during his first year in a decade-long deal with Fox after signing a contract worth $375million to be the network’s lead NFL analyst.

His stake in the franchise was once seen as a potential problem in his job as an analyst. Furthermore, Brady’s first year in the booth was marred with poor reviews from fans and figures in the industry.

Nonetheless, Brady sH๏τ down rumors of him leaving the network for the Raiders front office.
