Given Tom Brady’s busy schedule, there is at least one NFL reporter who wouldn’t be surprised if the seven-time Super Bowl champion walks away from his broadcasting gig.
Known for being a perfectionist during his playing career, the 47-year-old has kept himself busy since retiring from the NFL. Along with investing in the Las Vegas Aces, Birmingham City of League One and his growing Brady Brand, TB12 is also part owner of the Las Vegas Raiders.
This is all while being the lead color commentator for the NFL on Fox after signing a $375 million deal over 10 years back in 2022.

With Brady now approaching the end of the first year of the deal, NFL reporter Richard Deitsch stated he wouldn’t be surprised if Tom walks away from the deal before the start of the 2025 NFL season.
“I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: Brady’s got too many irons in the fire,” Deitsch stated.”With his focus shifting to NFL ownership and his production company, don’t be surprised if he goes all-in off the field.”
While the take is a stunner, it isn’t impossible given Brady delayed his start with Fox and is becoming increasingly involved with the Raiders.
“He’s competitive and very thorough in everything he does,” said Raiders owner Mark Davis, who doesn’t view Brady as just a figurehead with the franchise.
Raiders revamp could be Brady’s focus
The Raiders enter the final game of the season with a 4-12 season in what has been another disappointing campaign for the franchise.
The fact they haven’t won a playoff game since 2002 when they were the Oakland Raiders, shows how much of a turnaround is needed to make Las Vegas competitive.
Antonio Pierce’s future as head coach is under threat, and with the team devoid of talent at several places, a new direction could be in order.
The NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero and Peter Schrager have previously stated that Brady will likely have a say in the team’s coaching decision, with former teammate and close friend Mike Vrabel viewed as an option.
This has added fuel to the fire that the Raiders and their future is slowly becoming Brady’s priority.
