Tom Brady's investment in Birmingham City and Las Vegas Raiders signals bigger ambitions ahead

Send Push
Tom Brady's investment journey has been nothing short of fascinating. After dominating the NFL for decades, Brady is now turning heads off the field by buying stakes in football clubs like Birmingham City and NFL's Las Vegas Raiders . From quarterback to boardroom player, Brady’s moves hint at ambitions beyond minority ownership.

Tom Brady's surprise minority ownership of Birmingham City sparks major promotion

Tom Brady caught the sports world completely off guard when he invested in Birmingham City in 2023. At the time, the team sat in England’s Championship, leaving fans and analysts alike skeptical about how serious Brady was about this move. But his arrival wasn’t a publicity stunt. Birmingham City recently secured their promotion back into the Championship after beating Peterborough 2-1, becoming the first EFL club this season to clinch promotion. Brady's role, both as a minority owner and an adviser, clearly goes deeper than just a famous name attached to a team. His competitive spirit might just be the boost Birmingham City needed.


Tom Brady’s growing influence at Las Vegas Raiders signals future majority ownership push


The former New England Patriots and Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback isn't stopping with just one sports franchise. Tom Brady also owns a minority stake in the Las Vegas Raiders, an NFL team with significant potential but recent struggles. Brady’s influence is already tangible, with recent strategic moves like hiring John Spytek as the new general manager. Spytek previously worked with Brady during his successful stint with the Buccaneers.

NFL insider Mike Florio sees Brady's investment as more than minor interest. According to Florio, "Tom Brady is ultra-competitive and he always wants to win and he’s always ambitious, I think one of these days, Tom Brady is going to be the majority owner of the Raiders." Current Raiders owner Mark Davis , who inherited the team from his father, Al Davis, in 2011, also owns the WNBA’s Las Vegas Aces—a team Brady has stakes in as well.

Brady’s involvement comes at a pivotal moment for the Raiders. The team is attempting a complete rebuild after a disappointing 2024 season. Pete Carroll’s arrival as head coach and Geno Smith stepping in as the starting quarterback are clear indicators of new beginnings. Brady’s presence brings an extra layer of scrutiny, especially with key players like Raiders left tackle Kolton Miller noticeably absent from voluntary offseason workouts due to unresolved contract negotiations. Miller, the longest-tenured Raider and a foundational figure on their offensive line, clearly wants a new deal, and Brady’s input might significantly shape how these critical negotiations play out.

Given Brady’s history, he’s not just investing money—he’s investing his reputation and fiercely competitive drive. Whether he ultimately moves toward full ownership or not, Tom Brady is undeniably reshaping his legacy off the field as aggressively as he did on it.
