Tom Brady's intent to purchase at least a minority stake in the Las Vegas Raiders will have to wait another week or so.

Any intent on Tom Brady's part will gain more light somewhere by the middle of October when the next ownership meeting is held, the Washington Post reported.

However, some roadblocks could further stall Brady's intent to purchase a minority stake. At the top of the list is the price.

Raiders owner Mark Davis may give the seven-time Super Bowl champion a discount that could reach as much as 70% of the equity value, NBC Sports pointed out.

Aside from that, another potential reason is the rule prohibiting majority owners from giving team equity to team employees. Davis was against this rule, hoping to use that route to subsidize the equity meant for Brady.

Further, it should be noted that October 17 or 18 holds no assurance that Tom Brady will successfully get that minority stake. Should that be the case, the next closest date for it to prosper would be December 12 or 13.

Tom Brady NFL return rumors debunked

After retiring a second time, some still believe that Tom Brady could suddenly decide to play again. However, buying a stake with the Las Vegas Raiders or any NFL team would put a lid on those Tom Brady return rumors.

The New York Jets have allegedly shown interest in the five-time Super Bowl MVP after Aaron Rodgers suffered an Achilles tear in his very first game for the team, NFL.com reported.

Regardless, an unnamed source claims that no call was made and the chances of seeing a Tom Brady return were unlikely.
