Coming under fire from current and former New England Patriots players for saying he doesn’t have “a dog in the fight,” Tom Brady has continued to send mixed signals about the big game.
Brady, 48, has ties to both teams. His ties to the Patriots are obvious as he spent the majority of his career with them. His ties to the Seattle Seahawks are less obvious.
The Las Vegas Raiders, of which Brady is a minority owner, are reportedly set to hire Seahawks offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak as their new head coach.

When asked by Pakinomist Digital who he thinks will win, he declined to give an answer.
“Tell me,” Brady said with a smile. “Does anyone really know or is it all just a guess?”
The 15-time Pro Bowler appeared to signal his support for the Patriots in a social media post Friday.

Brady posted a photo of himself and Robert Kraft to his Instagram story on Friday, captioning the post: “You know I got your back RKK.”
“Get the 7th ring so we can match,” Brady wrote with seven ring emojis. He also tagged the Patriots in the photo, apparently making it clear that he supports his former team.

While Brady was in California for the Super Bowl, he also opened his store, CardVault by Tom Brady, in San Francisco. The 15-time Pro Bowler said the turnout has been great.
“It was great. We had a good turnout. We opened in Sacramento yesterday and we opened in San Francisco today, so that’s pretty cool.”
Brady heard criticism from current and former Patriots players during the week.

“Personally, it makes me sick,” Spillane said Thursday during a Super Bowl week media availability, via MassLive.com. “But at the end of the day, [he’s a Patriot]; he has a dog in the fight. So for him to say it, it is what it is. At the end of the day, he’s the owner of the Las Vegas Raiders now, so he’s got to do what’s best for him.”
