The Las Vegas Raiders search for a new general manager is over as the team announced former Los Angeles Chargers GM Tom Telesco will take over the role in Sin City. But, in typical Raiders fashion, the decision came with a surprise twist at the end.
For a little more than a week, the Indianapolis Colts assistant general manager Ed Dodds and Las Vegas’ interim general manager Champ Kelly were viewed as the favorites and lead candidates to land the job. However, the Raiders brought Telesco in for a second interview on Monday and hired him on Tuesday afternoon.
