Raiders Dismiss Coach Following Loss to Broncos
Las Vegas, Nevada – November 08, 2025 – The Las Vegas Raiders have fired coach following a 29-23 overtime loss to the Denver Broncos on november 03, 2025.The move comes amid a challenging season for the team and quarterback Russell Wilson, who signed a two-year, $75 million contract extension in April 2025.
The dismissal marks a meaningful shift for the Raiders, who brought in the coach in 2022 after a tenure with the Denver Broncos. This decision reflects the team’s urgency to reverse its fortunes and contend for a playoff berth. The Raiders currently hold a losing record, and Wilson leads the NFL with 12 interceptions this season. The team will host the Dallas Cowboys on Monday Night Football on November 11, 2025, with uncertainty surrounding Wilson’s availability.
Wilson, 35, had appeared to show betterment in the Raiders’ recent 30-29 overtime defeat against the Jacksonville Jaguars on October 27, 2025, completing 284 passing yards and four touchdowns with only one interception. Despite this performance, the team’s overall struggles prompted the organization to seek a change in leadership.
The raiders have not yet announced an interim coach or a timeline for finding a permanent replacement. The team’s ownership is expected to conduct a thorough search for a candidate who can revitalize the offence and improve the team’s overall performance.
