Las Vegas has conducted a thorough search, but their process has been slow, with several top candidates already landing with other teams and moving on.
A major turning point came with Brian Daboll, the former Giants coach, who had drawn significant interest across the league. Reports had Daboll closing in on a deal to become the Titans’ offensive coordinator, pairing him with quarterback Cam Ward.
New updates indicate Daboll has committed to the Titans and is in Nashville to sign, effectively removing him from consideration for the Raiders’ head coaching job.
That development leaves Las Vegas with fewer marquee options and has shifted attention to other potential targets, including Denver Broncos pass-game coordinator Davis Webb, who could be a fit for the Raiders’ next era.
Daboll’s exit comes after a challenging tenure with the Giants, a factor in the broader league chatter about his fit anywhere, even as teams continued to monitor him.
With Daboll off the table, the Raiders must move quickly to finalize their choice or risk missing another target ahead of the 2026 season.
