The Las Vegas Raiders recently made a major shakeup to its coaching staff, firing offensive coordinator Luke Getsy as well as offensive line coach XXX and quarterbacks coach XXXX, after an embarrassing loss to the Cincinnati Bengals.
Now it seems they’ve begun the process of rebuilding the staff.
“The (Raiders) are hiring one of the NFL’s most respected offensive minds, bringing in Norv Turner as an assistant to help guide their offense, per me, (Mike Garafolo) and (Tom Pelissero). The ex-(Raiders) HC is back with the team, as his son Scott takes a more prominent role, too,” tweeted NFL insider Ian Rapoport.
