Chad Johnson Says He’s Joining Las Vegas Raiders Coaching Staff

Chad Johnson was one of the biggest personalities during his playing days. His touchdown celebrations were all-timers and his press conference quotes were zingers.

Now, the former NFL wide receiver is trying to enter the coaching world. Johnson took to Twitter/X to announce that he’s officially joining the Las Vegas Raiders after having lunch with new head coach Antonio Pierce.

Having dinner with Antonio Pierce & I’m going to ask for a job with the Raiders in some capacity to help diversify my portfolio/resume, this would be my 39th job if all goes well 🙏🏾

It’s no surprise see Antonio Pierce, a former player, bring in guys that use to be in the league. Whether or not Chad will be on the staff is to be determined but gotta appreciate the excitement AP is bringing to the Raiders.
