Tom Brady BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

Tom Brady has had quite the eventful few days as we head into the final month of 2025. The biggest bombshell came when the Raiders organization, with Brady's involvement as part of ownership, made the controversial decision to fire offensive coordinator Chip Kelly after the team's ninth loss of the season, bringing their record to a dismal 2-9. According to NBC Sports Pro Football Talk, Kelly was the highest-paid coordinator in the league at 6 million dollars annually on a three-year deal, having just arrived from Ohio State where he served as offensive coordinator. The firing happened late last week following a particularly frustrating Monday night game where the running game was underutilized despite head coach Pete Carroll's emphasis on establishing it. Analysts questioned whether Kelly and Carroll could ever coexist, suggesting the Monday night performance was likely the final straw in a deteriorating working relationship.

The move has intensified scrutiny on Brady himself. Since he's involved in the Raiders ownership and decision-making, he bears responsibility for the hiring of both Carroll and Kelly, as well as the decision to make Geno Smith the starting quarterback. Critics are pointing out that Brady cannot simply delegate away the team's ongoing struggles, noting that if the Raiders continue to underperform, the blame will ultimately fall on him despite his other business commitments.

On the broadcasting front, Brady has maintained his Fox Sports presence. On Thursday, November 27th, he announced the Thanksgiving Day matchup between the Green Bay Packers and Detroit Lions, which kicked off at 1 PM ET. This continued his duties as one of Fox's premier NFL commentators.

Additionally, Brady was set to be on hand for a significant college football game on Saturday, November 28th, as reported by Athlon Sports, though specific details about his appearance weren't fully provided. His involvement in both professional and college football coverage shows he's juggling multiple high-profile roles simultaneously, even as the Raiders' organizational chaos swirls around him. The tension between his broadcasting obligations and his ownership responsibilities continues to mount as the team's season spirals further downward.
