Raiders Move to Hire Seahawks OC Klint Kubiak as Head Coach After Super Bowl

The agreement cannot be finalized until after Super Bowl LX because Kubiak is coaching in the game.

Overview

  • Multiple outlets report Las Vegas is zeroing in on Kubiak after a Jan. 31 in‑person second interview, with mutual interest to work out a deal.
  • No contract has been signed and any announcement must wait until the NFL’s post‑Super Bowl window, according to the Associated Press.
  • The search has been led by GM John Spytek with significant input from minority owner Tom Brady, and the two were said to have connected well with Kubiak.
  • Kubiak, 38, directed a 2025 Seahawks offense that ranked third in points and eighth in yards after previous stints with the Saints, 49ers, Broncos and Vikings.
  • The potential hire aligns with Las Vegas holding the No. 1 draft pick and significant cap space, with widespread expectation the Raiders will target quarterback Fernando Mendoza; Seattle would then need to identify an OC replacement.
