NFL Lets Tom Brady Join Production Meetings Remotely for 2025 Season

The move balances broadcast preparation needs with conflict-of-interest safeguards tied to his Raiders ownership.

Overview

  • League spokesman Brian McCarthy confirmed Brady may attend production meetings only via remote access and remains barred from in-person meetings at team facilities or hotels.
  • Brady is still prohibited from attending team practices but may conduct off-site interviews with players as he did on limited occasions last season.
  • Other limits tied to his ownership persist, including restrictions on egregious criticism of officials or clubs and compliance with anti-tampering and gambling policies.
  • The Athletic first reported the change, which the NFL confirmed; the rules were originally imposed because Brady holds a minority stake in the Las Vegas Raiders.
  • The adjustment takes effect ahead of Week 1, when Brady and Fox call Giants–Commanders on Sept. 7, and follows last season’s one-off Super Bowl exception that allowed meeting access.
