Raiders Request To Interview Karl Scott For Defensive-Coordinator Job
3 weeks agoAccording to CBS Sports' Jonathan Jones, the Las Vegas Raiders requested permission to interview Seattle Seahawks defensive passing-game coordinator and defensive-backs coach Karl Scott for their defensive-coordinator position, according to sources. Scott worked with Nick Saban at Alabama before joining Pete Carroll's coaching staff in Seattle in 2021. Carroll, who is set to be introduced as the Raiders' new head coach on Monday, worked with Scott in his last two seasons at the helm in Seattle. In addition to working at Alabama, Scott was the Minnesota Vikings' defensive-backs coach. He's an intriguing candidate, having worked three years under Saban, who is considered to be the best evaluator and developer of defensive-back talent in football history. The first order of business for the Raiders is determining if current DC Patrick Graham will stick around in Vegas under Carroll.
