Stephen A. Smith wants Tom Brady to take a totally different role with the Las Vegas Raiders

Tom Brady is a partial owner of the Las Vegas Raiders, and it seems that the GOAT involves himself in some of the decision-making there.

ESPN's Stephen A. Smith thinks Brady should be doing much, much more.

On Monday, Smith had this take: Brady should run football operations for Las Vegas.

"He's not going to leave the job that he's got at Fox paying him over $37 million to run the damn Raiders," Smith acknowledged. "He ain't stupid at all. But ask him anyways."

The Raiders are mired in a miserable 2-12 season.

They got the quarterback decision wrong in the offseason, trading for Geno Smith and signing him to an extension only to see him turn into one of the NFL's worst QBs.

They also haven't done a good enough job this season of setting rookie RB Ashton Jeanty up for success. For a large portion of the season, Jeanty had more yards after contact than total yards because he was getting hit in the backfield that much.

There's no telling whether Brady would be great in a front office. But it's safe to expect he couldn't be worse than this.

The Raiders certainly wouldn't turn Brady down if he wanted that gig. And no, it seems unlikely that he would. It's an interesting premise, at least.
