In the span of three days, the Las Vegas Raiders found their new general manager and new head coach. After hiring former Tampa Bay Buccaneers executive John Spytek on Wednesday, the Raiders tabbed former Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll as their new lead man.

Carroll, 73, is set to return to the NFL sideline as a head coach for the first time since the conclusion of the 2023 regular season.

“In the NFL, though, Carroll has had the upper hand over Harbaugh (6-5), especially in their most recent battles,” Moton wrote. “Though the Chargers are coming off a year in which they clinched a playoff berth with an 11-6 record, Harbaugh probably isn't thrilled to see Carroll back in his conference and division.”
