Spytek has ties to Vegas minority owner Tom Brady, having played alongside the former QB at Michigan decades before they went on to win a Super Bowl together in Tampa Bay — with Spytek as the assistant GM. He’s now the third full-time general manager in three seasons for the Raiders, who fired Tom Telesco after one year following a 4-13 season.

Spytek will be hired as the Raiders general manager, reuniting the Bucs assistant GM with Brady, who is a minority owner of the Las Vegas club but a big voice in this decision. For the past nine seasons, Spytek played a significant role in the personnel decisions, both in the draft and free agency, by Bucs general manager Jason Licht.
