Pete Carroll and the Las Vegas Raiders have reached an agreement on a three-year deal with a fourth-year team option to be the team’s new head coach, sources told ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
Carroll, 73, is one of four head coaches to have led teams to both a college football national championship and the Super Bowl. The others are Barry Switzer, Jimmy Johnson and Jim Harbaugh.
Carroll helped shape USC into a national champion and then went to Seattle and, over a run that lasted 14 seasons, led the Seahawks to 10 playoff appearances, two conference championships and the franchise’s only Super Bowl win.
The Raiders fired Antonio Pierce after his first full season as head coach on Jan. 7 after the team went 4-13.
Carroll with be the Raiders’ fifth head coach since relocating to Las Vegas from Oakland in 2020 and their ninth since Mark Davis took over as owner upon the death of his father, Al Davis, in 2011.
