Black Monday is now less than a week away.
Once the Week 18 slate is over and over half of the league enters the offseason, coaches and general managers on the hot seat will await their ultimate fate. For some of them, their season finale will be their last game with their current organization.
Teams like the New York Jets, New Orleans Saints and Chicago Bears have gotten a head start in clearing up positions. Others have exercised patience throughout the season, but Monday will be when most teams make their final decisions.
The Las Vegas Raiders are one such team, according to Sports Illustrated’s Albert Breer, who offered notes on many teams facing difficult decisions on the fateful day.
