The Oakland Raiders made some noise by adding ex-Chargers defensive coordinator John Pagano to the coaching staff. Although Pagano survived two head coach changes in San Diego, the third time wasn’t the charm, as he was let go by Anthony Lynn and was replaced by Gus Bradley.
The news brought some optimism to Raider fans, as many of them were disappointed that defensive coordinator, Ken Norton Jr., was not replaced. Right now, Pagano is being called assistant head coach-defense, which is a unique title. I don’t believe I’ve seen it before, so for now what that title entails is just speculation.
