Las Vegas Raiders’ Offensive Coordinator Search Takes a Surprising Turn
In a shocking turn of events, former Arizona Cardinals head coach Kliff Kingsbury has withdrawn himself from consideration as the Las Vegas Raiders’ new offensive coordinator. This unexpected move has left the Raiders scrambling to find a suitable replacement.
Speculation is running rampant throughout the league as to why Kingsbury made this decision. Many believe that he may have received a more enticing offer elsewhere. One NFL analyst, Colin Cowherd, took to Twitter to share his prediction on where Kingsbury may end up.
Cowherd believes that Kingsbury will head east to join the Washington Commanders as their next offensive coordinator. This move would not come as a surprise, as the Commanders are in desperate need of fresh ideas on offense. They struggled greatly this past season and are looking to turn things around.
However, the Commanders still have some obstacles to overcome. One major question mark is their quarterback situation. Rumor has it that they may try to make a blockbuster trade to acquire the No. 1 pick and select Caleb Williams. Williams worked with Kingsbury at USC and could be a perfect fit for their offense.
If this trade were to happen, it could have a ripple effect throughout the league. Eric Bieniemy, the current offensive coordinator for the Kansas City Chiefs, would become a free agent once again. He would undoubtedly be one of the most sought-after assistants in the league, with teams vying for his services.
The Raiders now find themselves back at square one in their search for an offensive coordinator. It remains to be seen who they will target next, but one thing is for sure – the pressure is on to find the right person for the job. Stay tuned for more updates on this developing story.
