The Las Vegas Raiders fired coach Pete Carroll on the first day of the 2026 season, kickstarting their fourth head-coaching hiring search since 2022.<\/p>\n
The team, which is being led by part owner Tom Brady and general manager John Spytek during the search, has had a round of interviews and have six up several more. It is a group consisting of coaches whose season ended after the regular season, whose team are still playing in the postseason and whose team has been eliminated from the postseason.
