Cam Miller shares his thoughts about getting endorsement from Raiders minority owner Tom Brady

Just like Cam Miller, retired seven-time Super Bowl champion Tom Brady was also a sixth-round pick, in the 2000 NFL draft. In May, Raiders GM John Spytek said that Brady endorsed the quarterback's selection in this year's draft.

During a press conference on Tuesday before his preseason debut, Miller shared his thoughts on receiving an endorsement from Brady.

"If it is true, that's very humbling and honoring to know that the best quarterback to ever play the game endorsed me," Miller said. "But at the same time, I have my own path. He had his own path, and I think every quarterback from the age of five to you know the veteran quarterbacks in the league are still chasing him.

"So yeah, if I do have a conversation with him and he, you know, he talked to our team the other day, I'm just writing down every single thing that he says because, you know, it's extremely important for me."

The Raiders' next preseason game is against the San Francisco 49ers, on Aug. 16 at Allegiant Stadium.
