Tom Brady Contacts Bill Belichick About Raiders Job

Following the firing of head coach Antonio Pierce, the Las Vegas Raiders have initiated a coaching search, with minority owner Tom Brady reportedly reaching out to former coach Bill Belichick about a potential reunion. Belichick, who recently signed a five-year deal with the University of North Carolina, has received inquiries from multiple NFL teams, including the Raiders. His North Carolina contract includes a $10 million buyout if he leaves before June 2025, but NFL teams may still pursue him due to his prestigious coaching history. Brady's influence in the hiring process is notable, as he hopes to establish a winning culture akin to his time with Belichick at the Patriots. Meanwhile, the Raiders are also considering other candidates, including coordinators from the Detroit Lions. The coaching vacancy is one of several across the league, as teams seek experienced leadership to guide their franchises.
