Tampa Bay Buccaneers legend Tom Brady ‘should’ have a hand in fixing the Las Vegas Raiders

It wasn’t that long ago that future Hall of Fame quarterback Tom Brady had a hand in fixing the Tampa Bay Buccaneers franchise. Now a former NFL player says the new team he’s associated with should allow him to do the same for them.

Not only that, but it should start a trend that would spread to the same Buccaneers team that Brady once led to a Super Bowl title after the team failed to even make the playoffs for years before his arrival to fetch.

Of course, when Brady arrived in Tampa Bay, he brought along some friends, including Rob Gronkowski. Those friends played a crucial role in the championship run and are just part of the evidence that the retired quarterback was involved in football decisions with the Las Vegas Raiders – the franchise he is now a part of. minority owner by.

“I’m sure he’s involved and I would include him,” Chris Long said of his Green Light with Chris Long (Yote House Media) program on whether or not he believes Brady will be involved in future football decisions with the Raiders.

“If you were to invite a Tom Brady into the decision-making process, it would only improve the process,” Long continued. “I think every team should have a guy like Tom Brady upstairs. There’s only one Tom Brady, but there are some smart alumni that teams can lean on. I’ve always said this: Hiring coaches, there should should be a council. That shouldn’t happen.” must be the owner. It should be a council of former players and people in the building who work in football. And the owner must facilitate that process.”

It’s a daring idea, but one that certainly has its merits. For example, imagine that if the Bucs decide to acquire head coach Todd Bowles this offseason, it would not only be a task for general manager Jason Licht to find a new head coach, but also a task that would involve former players like linebacker Derrick are involved. Brooks and cornerback Ronde Barber.

Certainly, the involvement of two beloved Buccaneers alumni would not only allow Licht to get a more in-depth look at how a candidate resonates with players, but would also lend some immediate credibility to the move, with the blessings of Brooks and Barber attached .

With Las Vegas, the idea is simple. After all, Brady is a co-owner and therefore there isn’t a huge shift in approach to his involvement in the decision to retain or move on from head coach Antonio Pierce, and possibly other football moves such as drafting and drafting specific football moves . players.

Plenty of other owners, like Jerry Jones of the Dallas Cowboys and David Tepper of the Carolina Panthers, are in charge of such decisions without one percent of the functional in-game experience that Brady or other esteemed alumni would bring.

It’s already uncharted territory that Brady is entering, so how things will go from here is anyone’s guess at this point. But one thing’s for sure: the legendary quarterback isn’t done leaving his mark on the way the NFL franchise operates, even though his ball-carrying days are behind him.
