Tom Brady wants Ben Johnson to become new Las Vegas Raiders head coach after Bill Belichick rejection Tom Brady wants Ben Johnson to take over as the new Las Vegas Raiders head coach, it has emerged.
But Brady's old New England Patriots head coach has just joined the college game with North Carolina and is believed to be happy to stay put for now.
The Raiders fired Antonio Pierce earlier this week and it was claimed that Brady had reached out to gauge Bill Belichick's interest in the position.
Brady is personally involved in recruiting the Detroit Lions offensive coordinator with the seven-time Super Bowl winner 'enamored' by him, according to NFL Insider Ian Rapoport.
Brady, a minority owner for the Raiders, has also spent time with Johnson's agent, Rapoport said.
