"LAS VEGAS -- Las Vegas Raiders minority owner Tom Brady was seen in the team's coaching booth for the first time during the first quarter of Monday's game against the Los Angeles Chargers. Brady, who was wearing a headset, has been a helpful resource for coach Pete Carroll and first-time general manager John Spytek, who was in the Tampa Bay Buccaneers front office when the seven-time Super Bowl champion was the starting quarterback."
"Carroll and Spytek have consulted Brady on roster decisions during the offseason. Spytek told ESPN in April that Brady's voice has been "invaluable." Recently, the NFL relaxed some of its restrictions surrounding Brady in his role as a broadcaster for Fox, including allowing him to attend production meetings this season. Brady will have to attend the production meetings -- when a broadcast crew meets with that game's head coaches and key players -- remotely, and he will still not be allowed to attend practices at team facilities."
