The Las Vegas Raiders are ushering in a new coaching staff this season, including offensive line coach Brennan Carroll, the son of new head coach Pete Carroll. The majority of Brennan’s coaching experience has been while working for his dad, leading to some concern that this was a nepotism hire by the Raiders.
Recently, a Silver and Black Pride commenter posed a mailbag question about the offensive line coach’s track record. Luckily, the younger Carroll has spent eight years in the college ranks, which weren’t under his father’s watch and are worth exploring.
