Raiders Expected to Add Seahawks Run-Game Coordinator Rick Dennison to Klint Kubiak’s Staff

The veteran assistant reunites with Kubiak to help install a ground-focused identity in Las Vegas.

Overview

  • Multiple outlets, led by CBS SportsMatt Zenitz, report Las Vegas is expected to hire Rick Dennison from Seattle, with his specific Raiders title not yet disclosed.
  • Dennison served last season as the Seahawks’ run game coordinator and senior offensive advisor and just earned a Super Bowl ring.
  • He brings roughly 30 years of NFL coaching experience, including offensive coordinator roles with the Broncos, Texans and Bills, and four Super Bowl titles overall.
  • The addition extends Kubiak’s trend of bringing trusted Seahawks assistants to replicate a run-heavy approach, with Andrew Janocko set as offensive coordinator.
  • The move creates another opening on Seattle’s offensive staff, with departures to Las Vegas so far limited to Kubiak, Janocko and Dennison.
