Tom Brady is “running everything in Vegas” as the Raiders’ minority owner, The Athletic’s Dianna Russini said on “The Ryen Russillo podcast.” Las Vegas just made two critical hires in head coach Pete Carroll and general manager John Spytek, whom Brady knew from his time with the Buccaneers and college days at Michigan.

The Las Vegas Raiders hired Pete Carroll to be their new head coach, but multiple members of the NFL are making fun of the Raiders.
