The Las Vegas Raiders have hired former Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll to lead their team in 2025, according to NFL Insider Adam Schefter.

The Raiders have made the playoffs just twice since 2002. They need a jolt, and former Seahawks coach Pete Carroll is a living, breathing jumper cable.

The Las Vegas Raiders announced Saturday that Pete Carroll is their new coach. The Raiders hope that even as the oldest head coach in the NFL the 73-year-old Carroll will provide stability for an organization badly lacking it.

Which means the Super Bowl champion Carroll is now the oldest head coach in the league by far. The San Francisco native will turn 74 in September when the 2025 NFL season begins. The next-oldest coach, Andy Reid, will turn 67 in March — assuming he returns to the Chiefs for another year.

The Las Vegas Raiders are negotiating a deal to hire Pete Carroll to be their new head coach, a person with knowledge of the decision told The Associated Press.

The Raiders have locked down the legendary Pete Carroll as their new head coach and word is that his old QB Russell Wilson could join him.

Carroll will become the oldest head coach in NFL history when he turns 74 in September, but the Raiders clearly view him as someone able to get this franchise back on the right tr

The Seattle Seahawks are hiring Klint Kubiak to fill their offensive coordinator role under head coach Mike Macdonald, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.

Following his being hired as the head coach of the Las Vegas Raiders, Pete Carroll will turn his attention to putting together a staff, which shouldn't be too hard with all of the connections Carroll has.

The Las Vegas Raiders need to find a quarterback now that they have hired Pete Carroll as their new head coach, and a reunion between the 73-year-old and Russell Wilson seems like a legitimate possibility.

NFL insider Ian Rapoport floated an idea for that veteran presence: Russell Wilson, the former quarterback for Carroll's Seahawks. Rapoport reported that the two have remained close and that Wilson is a strong candidate to sign with the Raiders.
