Raiders' Future Uncertain: Coaching, GM, and QB Decisions Loom

Interim Coach Antonio Pierce Earns Player Support, While Michigan Coach Jim Harbaugh Emerges as Potential Contender

Interim coach Antonio Pierce led the Raiders to a 5-4 record after taking over midseason, revitalizing the locker room and earning the support of the players.
Owner Mark Davis must conduct a search that includes interviewing at least two external candidates who are minorities and/or women, as per NFL hiring rules.
Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh is speculated to be a top contender for the position, especially after hiring agent Don Yee, who also represents Tom Brady.
Alongside the coaching decision, Davis is also considering a new general manager, with the Raiders having requested at least four interviews.
The Raiders' future quarterback is also uncertain, with rookie Aidan O’Connell potentially continuing in the role, or the return of Jimmy Garoppolo, who was signed last offseason to a three-year, $72.75 million contract.
