Good news for the Las Vegas Raiders: he’s back.

According to a recent source, the Las Vegas Raiders are likely to decide on one of their most crucial coaching positions, offensive coordinator, in the coming days.

Going into the month, the Raiders had some critical decisions to make about two crucial jobs in the organization. After sacking their previous general manager and head coach midway through the season, the organization had to decide if their temporary replacements, Antonio Pierce and Champ Kelly, would become full-time employees.

While Pierce’s 5-4 record and ability to command the locker room helped remove the interim tag off his title, the company suddenly signed former Los Angeles Chargers general manager Tom Telesco to occupy the same role in Las

Vegas. The team must now fill Pierce’s positions, notably the critical role of offensive coordinator.
Over the last week, the organization has spoken with a number of promising prospects, and it appears that a decision is soon. On Sunday, NFL Media league source Ian Rapoport stated that “Las Vegas is set to make an early decision this week” on the job.

According to rumors, San Francisco 49ers passing game expert Klint Kubiak could be the final candidate they examine for the position.

Why the Las Vegas Raiders must find an appropriate offensive coordinator.

Pierce’s collaboration with defensive coordinator Patrick Graham proved effective throughout the season, as the team’s defense improved dramatically. However, finding the right offensive coordinator is vital to his long-term success.

Davante Adams will be an excellent receiver, and the team may re-sign Josh Jacobs, a two-time Pro Bowler. Giving them two robust components to work with. The next coordinator will also have to decide whether to nurture 2023 rookie Aidan O’Connell or draft a quarterback early in April’s NFL Draft.

The team showed promise under Pierce in the final nine games, including a 63-point outburst against the Chargers. The right coordinator might spell the difference between the Las Vegas Raiders competing for a playoff spot in 2024 and being a legitimate contender to win the AFC West.
