Raiders Request Permission To Interview Todd Monken For Head-Coach Position
5 mins agoThe Las Vegas Raiders requested permission to interview Baltimore Ravens head coach Todd Monken for their head-coaching job, according to a source. Given his success with quarterback Lamar Jackson each of the last two seasons, it's no surprise that Monken has become one of the hottest head-coaching candidates in the NFL this cycle. The Raiders are looking for yet another head coach following their axing of Antonio Pierce after only one season as the full-time head coach. In addition to the Raiders, the Chicago Bears and Jacksonville Jaguars are also looking at Monken, who has 10 seasons of NFL coaching experience. He was also the Tampa Bay Buccaneers offensive coordinator from 2016-18 and the Cleveland Browns offensive coordinator in 2019. Monken helped win back-to-back national championships at the University of Georgia running the Bulldogs' offense from 2020-22 as well.
