Raiders Working on Deal to Hire Klint Kubiak as Head Coach, Reports Say
Raiders aim to hire Klint Kubiak after Super Bowl, valuing his role in Seattle’s top-ranked offense and potential to develop their franchise quarterback.
- This coming week, the Las Vegas Raiders are targeting Klint Kubiak, Seattle Seahawks offensive coordinator, but cannot finalize a hire until February 8, 2026, while Kubiak focuses on beating the New England Patriots.
- Seattle's offense finished third in points and eighth in yards, and Tom Brady, Raiders minority owner, praised Kubiak's play-calling, attracting Raiders' interest.
- Klint Kubiak had his second interview on Saturday, Raiders brass flew to Seattle, and a person said talks are advancing but no deal is official until after the Super Bowl.
- If the Raiders hire Kubiak, it would mean he's the franchise's fifth full-time leader since 2020, raising distraction risks for the Seahawks during the Super Bowl. Seattle coach Mike Macdonald seemed resigned to losing him.
- Owning the top pick in this year's draft, the Las Vegas Raiders could rely on Klint Kubiak to develop Fernando Mendoza into their franchise quarterback, sources say.
