Process: At least 24 NFL owners will have to approve Brady as a minority owner. - Brady’s investment in the Raiders will not impact his 10-year, $375 million broadcasting deal with Fox, which is due to start in 2024. Interesting: Davis chose not to comment when asked about the prospect of Brady coming out of retirement to play for the Raiders. - A dual owner-player role would have to be approved by NFL owners. Image: Cliff Welch/Icon Sportswire Ekeler [Ekeler] Austin Ekeler to play for Chargers in 2023, incentives added to contract Details: Ekeler, who requested a trade back in March, has agreed to play for the Chargers in 2023 — after the team [added]( nearly $2 million in incentives to his $6.25 million base salary. - The 28-year-old will be a free agent after the season. 2022 Review: Ekeler was among the league’s most productive offensive players last season, totaling 1,637 scrimmage yards (915 rushing, 722 receiving) and 18 touchdowns on 311 touches (5.7 yards per touch). - Ekeler, who is not attending voluntary OTAs this week, is expected to participate in mandatory minicamp next month. RB Depth: 2022 fourth-rounder Isaiah Spiller will see increased reps at OTAs. The team also has Joshua Kelly and Larry Rountree at the position. Image: David Rosenblum/Icon Sportswire Jackson [Lamar Jackson] Lamar Jackson will report to OTAs late Details: Jackson did not attend the Ravens’ first voluntary OTA practice on Monday, but is expected to [report]( to the team later this week. Important: Offseason workouts are important for Jackson, who will be learning a new offensive system under coordinator Todd Monken. - The former MVP also needs to build chemistry with a fresh group of receivers — Odell Beckham, Zay Flowers (first-round pick), and Nelson Agholor. More Ravens News: - WR Rashod Bateman, who missed 9 games last season with a serious foot injury, was on the practice field Monday. - The team has [signed]( 37-year-old QB Josh Johnson. Image: William Howard/Icon Sportswire Renfrow [Hunter Renfrow] Hunter Renfrow a candidate to be traded or released Details: Hondo Carpenter (Sports Illustrated) does [not]( think Renfrow will play for the Raiders this season. He expects “something to happen after June 1st.” - Vic Tafur (The Athletic) has also indicated that Renfrow’s future in Las Vegas is in [doubt](. Savings: A post-June 1 trade would save the Raiders $11.2 million in cap space this season and clear his $11.1 million salary in 2024. - The Raiders currently have less than $4 million in cap space. Saints: There’s plenty of speculation that Renfrow will end up reuniting with Derek Carr in New Orleans. The Saints have the cap space ($14.2 million under the cap) and a need at slot receiver. Image: David Rosenblum/Icon Sportswire Waller [Darren Waller] Giants OTAs: Darren Waller busy in the red zone Details: According to John Schmeelk (Giants.com), Waller was a “[frequent target](” in the red zone during competitive 7-on-7 drills. - The 30-year-old tight end came down two over-the-shoulder touchdown catches. Top Target? There’s some expectation that Waller, who was acquired via trade in March, could lead the Giants in targets this upcoming season — as the team lacks top-tier talent at receiver. Upside: In his best season (2020 with the Raiders), Waller caught 107 of 145 targets (74.8%) for 1,296 yards and 9 touchdowns.
