When Mark Davis asked which head coach he would try to hire if he became the Las Vegas Raiders’ general manager, Davie Ziegler quickly named Josh McDaniels.
Davis wondered if McDaniels would be interested. Ziegler assured Davis if he was hired, McDaniels would come. And now the two former college football teammates are tasked to lead the franchise for the future.
While Ziegler may have not gotten the job without McDaniels, his presence in Henderson is vital for him. From watching the Monday press conference, it was clear to me that McDaniels needs Ziegler in Las Vegas.
