Las Vegas Raiders head coach Josh McDaniels' seat is starting to warm up after the team's 2-3 start to the season, according to Dianna Russini of The Athletic.

Russini reported Saturday that "there have been whispers around the league that Josh McDaniels could be in trouble if Las Vegas doesn't start winning."

McDaniels has a record of 8-14 in Las Vegas, with the organization missing the postseason last year. As the AFC currently stands, the Raiders are outside of the playoff picture through five weeks.

With the team in "win-now" mode, they could be active on the trade market as the front office looks to replace Chandler Jones after the pass-rusher was released on Sept.
