Tom Brady

Following a successful college football career at Michigan that included four bowl wins—two as a starter—Tom Brady famously entered the NFL as a sixth-round draft pick with little expectations before becoming arguably the greatest football player of all-time.

Brady won the Super Bowl six times with the New England Patriots and once with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He retired as the NFL’s all-time leader in passing yards, passing touchdowns and game-winning drives—and he still leads all of these categories.

The California native pledged he would remain in touch with football when he stepped away from the playing field for good, and he has done so by entering the TV booth with Fox as the network's lead NFL analyst, part of a 10-year, $375 million deal.

Brady became a part-owner of the Las Vegas Raiders when the confirmation vote passed on Oct. 15, 2024, giving him a roughly 5% stake in the franchise. His sports ownership portfolio also includes the WNBA's Las Vegas Aces and English soccer club Birmingham City FC.

In 2024, Brady merged his health and nutrition company, TB12, and his apparel company, Brady, with apparel brand Nobull. He's the No. 2 shareholder in the company.

Additionally, Brady has leaned into live-event and media ventures with longtime collaborator Michael Rubin's Fanatics, headlining the inaugural Fanatics Flag Football Classic, an event relocated from Saudi Arabia to Los Angeles amid Middle East security concerns, alongside stars such as Joe Burrow.
