Maxx Crosby Makes Clear Demand For Raiders’ Next HC
After firing both of them during the season, the Las Vegas Raiders have two significant hires to make in the offseason: general manager and head coach.
Although interim head coach Antonio Pierce had a strong first half of the season, Raiders owner Mark Davis will keep Pierce in mind while searching the league for a suitable replacement.

A few players, notably standout defensive end Maxx Crosby, have expressed support for Pierce returning to the head coaching position in 2024 and beyond. Crosby’s social media post was a direct response to the concept of bringing Pierce back.
The next Raiders head coach will likely have an impact on Crosby’s outlook on his future with the organisation, according to a social media post by NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport.
Being one of the Raiders’ finest players and still having a contract, Crosby might send a message to the management that Pierce’s hiring as the team’s full-time head coach might guarantee Crosby’s length of stay.
The Raiders had let rid of Jon Gruden two years ago and have not been able to find a replacement, so this is a significant turning point.
Midway through his second season with the squad, Josh McDaniels lost his job due to his failure to meet expectations.
At the close of the season, the Raiders were making a push for the playoffs despite having slim chances of winning, but with Pierce, they appeared revitalised.
Players this year seemed to love playing for Pierce, despite his lack of experience compared to some of the top prospects.
