Las Vegas Raiders Hiring Josh McDaniels As Next Head Coach

The Raiders have their man.

For a brief moment, there was no Bill Belichick disciples left as head coaches in the NFL. That has now changed with the hiring of Josh McDaniels.

The Las Vegas Raiders have chosen to move on from interim head coach Rich Bisaccia and hired the Patriots offensive coordinator.

Raiders are expected to hire former Patriots’ OC Josh McDaniels as their head coach, per sources. Two sides still are finalizing the contract, but McDaniels is their man.

The Raiders were of course put in the position of having to hire a new head coach after the Jon Gurden scandal involving racist, homophobic and misogynist-laced texts and emails were brought to light during an NFL investigation.
