Tom Brady isn’t the only New England Patriots legend looking to buy a minority ownership stake in the Las Vegas Raiders.
Per Pro Football Talk’s Mike Florio, Hall of Fame defensive end Richard Seymour is reportedly close to “finalizing a deal to become an owner and limited partner of the Raiders.”
An agreement is already in place between Brady and Raiders owner Mark Davis for the legendary quarterback to buy an ownership stake in the team, but the move has yet to be made official by the NFL. Brady still needs a three-fourths majority vote from owners.
Seymour will now reportedly join that bid with Brady (and their own partners) for roughly 10.4 percent ownership of the Raiders. Florio pointed to October as an ideal time for the owners to vote.
Seymore is a former three-time Super Bowl champion with the Patriots, who selected him with the No. 6 overall pick of the 2001 NFL draft. The team traded him to the Raiders in 2009.
He ultimately finished out his career in Oakland and even earned two Pro Bowl nods with the franchise.
