Tom Brady may have taken his talents from the booth to the field, but he still has influence in what goes on across the NFL landscape. And one team he specifically has some hold on is the Las Vegas Raiders. Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated recently highlighted the influence that the former New England Patriots signal-caller wields.

Raiders have experienced over the past three decades is unrivaled — unless you’re a Cleveland Browns fan. For a franchise with three Super Bowl trophies, it’s embarrassing to think their last Super Bowl appearance was a forgettable 48–21 loss to Jon Gruden’s Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2002.

The Raiders off-the-field initiatives continue to rack up positive impacts on the Las Vegas Valley. The NFL team’s annual Impact Playbook released Jan. 3 highlights several aspects of the Raiders’ community work, charitable contributions and ongoing relationships with former players.

The Raiders latest GM interview request is Buccaneers Assistant GM John Spytech who Tom Brady knows quite well.

A few days after firing head coach Antonio Pierce, the Las Vegas Raiders made it known they wanted a reset at the general manager position as well. They fired Tom Telesco, and are now in business for a new general manager.
