5 Raiders coaching candidates (Brian Flores!) after Las Vegas fired Antonio Pierce

The Las Vegas Raiders are the latest NFL team with a head coaching vacancy after the franchise fired Antonio Pierce on Tuesday.

Pierce only got one season in the official role, and he was plagued with quarterback issues throughout the year. However, he’s now gone, and Las Vegas will work to find his successor.

With former New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady part of the Raiders ownership group, he’ll reportedly have a role in finding the next head coach. That’s going to shape the next hire.

As we think about who the next Las Vegas coach might be, let’s go through five plausible candidates.
