Raiders finalizing deal to hire Antonio Pierce as head coach - NBC Sports
At least for now, Maxx Crosby has no reason to request a trade.
The Raiders are finalizing a deal to make Antonio Pierce the team’s full-time head coach, according to multiple reports on Friday afternoon.
Pierce took over as the interim coach after Las Vegas fired Josh McDaniels when the team started 3-5. The Raiders went 5-4 under Pierce the rest of the way, including a signature 20-14 victory over the Chiefs on Christmas Day.
