Mark Davis has acknowledged he has "come to an agreement" with Tom Brady for the retired quarterback to join the Las Vegas Raiders' ownership group, pending NFL approval.

"We're excited for Tom to join the Raiders," Davis said, "and it's exciting because he will be just the third player in the history of the National Football League to become an owner."

The other two were George Halas and Jerry Richardson.

Brady also is part of Davis' WNBA champion Las Vegas Aces ownership group, acquiring a stake in March.
