Mark Davis Sells Additional 15% Stake in Raiders Ownership
NFL approval pending as Egon Durban and Michael Meldman join growing list of Raiders investors, including Tom Brady.
- Las Vegas Raiders owner Mark Davis has agreed to sell a 15% stake in the team, splitting it equally between Egon Durban, co-CEO of Silver Lake, and Michael Meldman, chairman of Discovery Land Company.
- The sale requires approval from 24 of the NFL's 32 owners, with a vote scheduled for a league meeting on December 10-11.
- Durban must divest from WME Sports, which represents NFL players like Joe Burrow and Nick Bosa, to comply with league ownership rules.
- This follows Davis' October sale of a 10.5% stake to a group including Tom Brady, who holds a 5% share and remains involved in the Raiders' planning despite restrictions tied to his role as a Fox analyst.
- The Raiders are struggling this season with a 2-8 record, raising hopes that new investors could help revitalize the franchise's long-term prospects.
