Tom Brady discovers stunning NFL decision on him calling his first Super Bowl as an analyst and Raiders owner

Tom Brady has a little more freedom on Super Bowl week as he gears up to end his debut season as a Fox NFL analyst by calling this weekend's showpiece game in New Orleans. When Brady's minority ownership of the Las Vegas Raiders ownership was confirmed last year, he was told he wouldn't be allowed to participate in team production meetings with players or coaches, visit other practice facilities or criticize officials.
But now, the NFL is relaxing those rules and he will play a part in the production meetings he is usually banned from - for both the Eagles and the Chiefs. It gives him precious insight into how the teams are planning to approach Sunday's game. Chiefs owner Clark Hunt made the revelation on Tuesday, marking a change in the league policy that Brady has had to follow all season. 'When Brady was approved as an owner of the Raiders, there were a lot of discussions internally (among owners) and that ended up being the recommendation of the league office, that it didn't make sense to have him in the production meetings,' Hunt said in New Orleans.
