On Friday, Tom Brady first appeared at Raiders practice after he became a minority owner. Local Las Vegas senior sports reporter Nick Walters spotted Brady and said he watched practice from the sidelines and stayed and chatted with numerous players .
Walters posted on X: "Tom Brady is at Raiders training camp Friday, making his first public practice appearance since becoming a minority team owner last year. Brady dapped up and chatted with numerous players."
Brady is actively working with FOX Sports as a broadcast team member, so he is limited in what he can do as an owner and can't be around full-time. However, Brady's presence around the team in any capacity will only help the team, even though their mode. He will not be around the team as much as Mark Davis .
The sale went final last October, and the majority owner, Mark Davis, came out and massively endorsed Brady's coming on and even said that Brady might be helping in a more hands-on role down the line.

"Tom is somebody I didn't like for many years," Davis said after Brady joined the ownership group. "He did admit that it was a fumble [Tuck Rule game]. So those are important aspects of the situation. We're just really proud to have him as a partner. He's a competitor. He's a bright young man."
"Although Tom can't play, I think he can help us select a quarterback in the future and potentially train as well."
The Raiders might be playing the long game in selecting a quarterback because they waited until day three of this past draft to select Cam Miller out of North Dakota State. They also traded for Geno Smith from the Seattle Seahawks . However, the upcoming 2026 NFL Draft is loaded with quarterbacks, and they might be looking ahead to that draft.
