Overview
- Pierce, a former Giants linebacker and ex-Raiders head coach, is meeting Thursday and Friday with GM Joe Schoen, according to ESPN.
- The 47-year-old went 5–4 as Las Vegas’ interim coach in 2023 before a 4–13 season in 2024 led to his firing.
- Raheem Morris is also in a multi-day initial interview, according to The Athletic’s Dianna Russini.
- Reporting frames Pierce as a nostalgic option rather than the favorite, with veteran candidates such as John Harbaugh, Mike McCarthy and Kevin Stefanski in consideration.
- Internal and recent staff options, including Mike Kafka, are part of the club’s broad slate of interviews.
