– Status update: Jeff Hafley and Kevin Stefanski have landed new jobs elsewhere. Robert Saleh is off the board for Las Vegas after taking the Titans gig. The Raiders still have other strong options to consider, even as some targets become temporarily unavailable.
– Favorite on the rise: Klint Kubiak is the betting favorite (+175) to be the Raiders’ next head coach. He’s proven as a play-caller, helped Seattle post a top-10 offense, and the Seahawks just lit up the NFC Championship with 41 points. With Las Vegas owning the No. 1 pick in the 2026 NFL Draft and a clear QB path, his offensive-minded leadership looks especially appealing. ⚡️📊
– Brian Flores update: Flores was an early favorite, but he hasn’t been interviewed yet. The Vikings’ DC isn’t in the mix for Las Vegas at the moment, though things could still shift. He may be a better fit for a team with an established veteran QB. 🧭
– Other names to watch: Chargers DC Jesse Minter is expected to be interviewed soon (could be hard for Vegas to lose him once he’s in-house). Denver quarterbacks coach Davis Webb is also in the mix—bold pick with limited play-calling experience but strong buzz around him. 🏈🔥
– Bottom line: With the No. 1 pick and a QB path in sight, Las Vegas is courting high-upside options. Kubiak sits front and center, but Minter and Webb (and perhaps Flores in some form) keep the search wide open. Stay tuned! 📊🚀
