NFL Approval Of Tom Brady's Raiders Bid 'Making Progress'

Mar 27, 2024 8:05 AM

The NFL has yet to approve Tom Brady's bid for a minority ownership stake in the Las Vegas Raiders, but Roger Goodell is not concerned.

"I wouldn't say it's a delay," Goodell said. "We go through a very thorough process. ... We're just going through our process. We've been in touch with their side. I think it's been making progress."

Last May, the Raiders reached an agreement with Brady for him to join the organization's ownership group, pending league approval.

The Las Vegas Raiders will release Hunter Renfrow when the new league year opens, according to a source.

Renfrow was due to count $13.718 million against the salary cap in 2024. Las Vegas saves $8.21 million on the cap with the release.

The 28-year-old wide receiver earned a Pro Bowl nod in 2021 after a 103-catch, 1,038-yard, 9-touchdown campaign.

Gardner Minshew, Raiders Agree To Two-Year, $25M Contract

Mar 11, 2024 10:47 PM

The Las Vegas Raiders have agreed to sign Gardner Minshew on a two-year, $25 million deal with $15 million in guaranteed money. Minshew will compete for the starting job with Aidan O'Connell.

The deal likely puts the Raiders out of the running to trade for Justin Fields, but they could select a quarterback in the draft.

Minshew parlayed a one-year deal worth less than $3 million into a strong season for the Indianapolis Colts, starting 13 games in place of injured starter Anthony Richardson and throwing for 15 touchdowns and a career-high 3,305 yards.
