Tom Brady's Influence Grows—Facilitates Pete Carroll’s Raiders Arrival

A decade after their iconic Super Bowl clash, Tom Brady and Pete Carroll are teaming up—this time with the Las Vegas Raiders. Carroll, the legendary former Seahawks coach, explained that Brady played a crucial role in bringing him to Vegas, where the two are now reshaping the Raiders’ future. As a powerful figure in the Raiders’ front office, Brady influenced key offseason decisions, including Carroll’s hiring and the acquisition of QB Geno Smith, reuniting coach and former quarterback. The Raiders also drafted Boise State RB Ashton Jeanty, signaling a full rebuild under Brady and Carroll’s leadership. After years of instability, Las Vegas may finally be poised for a turnaround—and it’s thanks, in part, to the unlikely alliance of two NFL icons once on opposite sides of history.
