Tom Brady makes appearance on first day of Raiders' offseason program
Brady was in the building for the official start of the Klint Kubiak regime.
At a time when minority owner Tom Brady's role with the Raiders isn't clear, he gave a clear indication as to his current level of involvement. Via Ryan McFadden of ESPN, Brady was in the building for the first day of the 2026 offseason program. It comes a week after Brady posted a lengthy essay about his quest for balance .
For Tuesday at least, his balance included traveling from his home in Miami to Nevada for the first official day of coach Klint Kubiak's regime — and for quarterback Fernando Mendoza's official visit to the team that holds the first pick in the draft. Whether that means Brady will be a regular presence for the Raiders during the offseason program remains to be seen. But it represents a break from his absentee landlord vibe, which seems to be something less than owner Mark Davis expected when giving Brady a chunk of the team at a below-market deal.
Regardless of his presence, Brady remains part of team ownership. And the team has said G. M.
John Spytek will be running the football operation in " close collaboration " with Brady. For Tuesday at least, Brady was geographically close to the heart of the action for the Raiders. The closer he works with the Raiders, of course, the more obvious his conflict of interest will become.
