Super Bowl-winning head coach Pete Caroll is returning to the NFL after a one-year hiatus. He's the new head coach of the Las Vegas Raiders. What does this mean?

Carroll has always been equal parts fun and ferocious — sometimes his drive to build competition inside the roster is overshadowed by his positive personality. For all of the memorable success of Wilson and running back Marshawn Lynch in Seattle, it was always the legendary Legion of Boom defense that set the tone.

Over the past few hours, the Raiders ended their searches for a general manager and head coach. Reports have John Spytek signing a five-year deal to become the next GM and Pete Carroll signing a three-year deal to become the next head coach.

The Las Vegas Raiders are expected to hire Pete Carroll, who spent 14 seasons leading the Seattle Seahawks, as their new head coach. Carroll, who was a Seahawks adviser this season, has a career record of 170-120-1.

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.

According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the Raiders and Pete Carroll have agreed to a three-year deal with a fourth-year option.

Carroll, 73, returns to coaching just over a year since he parted with the Seahawks. He replaces the fired Antonio Pierce with the Raiders. Brady, the seven-time Super Bowl-winning quarterback for the New England Patriots and Tampa Bay Buccaneers, became a part-owner of the Raiders in October and played a central role in the team’s coaching search.

The Las Vegas Raiders are predicted to address the quarterback position this offseason by signing a veteran signal-caller in 2025 free agency.

Vegas has its man, and a big 2025 NFL Draft could help Carroll get the Raiders back on track quickly.

Alex Eschelman talked with ABC Tampa sports reporter Kevin Lewis about how John Spytek has helped the Bucs become a successful franchise since 2016.
