meanwhile Tom Brady may still be looking to buy a minority stake in the Las Vegas Raiders, but at least one star player in the silver and black wants Brady back on the field.
Davante Adams appeared on Club Shay Shay with Pro Football Hall of Famer Shannon Sharpe and expressed hope that Brady would come out of retirement for the second time and play quarterback for the Raiders.
Adams said he would hire Brady even if he was 58 years old.

“Yeah, for sure. You can tell me how old he is. I don’t care,” Adams told Sharpe. “Tom knows how I feel about him. And I think I’ll be the first guy to play with Tom and Aaron (Rodgers). So, that’s pretty cool.”
“He can still pitch better than half the players in the league.”
If Brady decides to take another year off from the broadcast booth and give it another go on the field, he could conceivably be the best quarterback on the team.

Why the Cowboys are the team most projected to fail to achieve winning numbers in 2024
Las Vegas will enter the 2024 season with Aidan O’Connell and Gardner Minshew II competing for the starting quarterback spot.
Jimmy Garoppolo was the starting quarterback last season but was benched in late October for O’Connell. Garoppolo missed two games with an injury and won just three of his eight starts. Adams’ frustration with Garoppolo’s accuracy was later documented in the Netflix series “Receivers.”
Garoppolo, currently with the Los Angeles Rams, is serving a two-game suspension for violating the league’s performance-enhancing drug policy.
There has been speculation that Adams could be traded to the New York Jets to reunite with Aaron Rodgers, but nothing has happened yet.
