About this listen
Tom Brady has dominated headlines and the sports world this week with a blend of high-profile business moves, fresh team dynamics, and even a little social intrigue. On Friday, Brady made his first highly anticipated public appearance on the practice field as minority owner of the Las Vegas Raiders, turning heads and energizing a franchise starved for success. Players were clearly in awe as Brady, decked out in full Raiders gear, offered encouragement and advice, focusing on rookie tight end Brock Bowers and veteran running back Raheem Mostert. According to Marca and KTNV, this marked his debut directly interacting with the squad and the excitement was obvious, with teammates and coaches openly praising his inspirational presence. Pete Carroll even called Brady’s championship background and willingness to share “a great element for the club.” Raiders fans got their first surreal look at Brady in silver and black, a far cry from his Patriots and Buccaneers days, and social media buzzed with video clips and locker-room selfies.
But Brady’s business ambitions were just as noteworthy. On Thursday, the NFL legend cut the ribbon on his third CardVault by Tom Brady sports card shop location, this one in Chicago right across from Wrigley Field, as reported by Athlon Sports and Yardbarker. The shop’s opening, attended by Chicago Cubs players and celebrated with a lively Instagram post, comes on the heels of rapid franchise expansion, with other new stores already popping up in New Jersey and New York in 2025. Brady’s quote—“Another one! Opened a new @cardvaultbytombrady in maybe the most legendary location yet”—was widely shared and his team’s momentum suggests more of these may be coming soon.
On the media front, NBC Sports and others zeroed in on a new twist in Brady’s public persona: his evolving philosophy on work-life balance. Echoing his comments on PFT Live, Brady reflected on balancing his legendary work ethic with his desire to set the right example for his kids, even as analysts noted that his obsession with football long predated fatherhood. Critics pointed out the contrast with his “give up your life to win” mentality from the Tom vs. Time documentary. His messaging, especially after two seasons of retirement, continues to draw both admiration and debate, fuelling discussion about the sacrifices behind his GOAT reputation.
Social chatter continues about Brady’s off-field activities—vacations with his children, sightings with notable celebrities like LeBron James in Monaco, and even rumors about dating actress Sofia Vergara, though nothing has been confirmed. The week has arguably cemented this next era of Tom Brady: entrepreneur, mentor, media personality—still very much the center of attention and, it seems, entirely comfortable staying in the spotlight.
