Tom Brady is currently facing restrictions on his access to key resources typically available to NFL broadcasters, according to a league source who spoke on Wednesday. This development comes as he is in the process of gaining approval to become a part-owner of the Las Vegas Raiders.

As the transaction is still under review, these limitations have been put in place effective immediately.

Brady, who recently joined Fox Sports as an analyst, will not have access to the usual facilities and information typically provided to broadcasters. This restriction is a precautionary measure while the NFL evaluates his potential ownership stake in the Raiders.

The league’s review process for such transactions can take some time, and during this period, Brady’s role and access are being carefully regulated to avoid any conflicts of interest.

The decision underscores the NFL’s commitment to maintaining clear boundaries between broadcasting roles and team ownership, ensuring that analysts do not have undue influence or access that could affect their impartiality.

As Brady awaits final approval for his ownership stake, he will need to navigate these restrictions while continuing his work as a football analyst.
