Raiders coaches: The new blood

Looking to shore up deficiencies on offense and defense, the Las Vegas Raiders added new blood to the coaching staff with Scott Turner and Rob Leonard this offseason.

Turner, who previously served as the Washington Commanders offensive coordinator, comes in as the pass game coordinator for head coach and offensive play caller Josh McDaniels. Leonard, who coached the outside linebackers with the Baltimore Ravens last season, is the Raiders new defensive line boss, replacing Frank Okam who was fired after one season.

Fortunately for both the Raiders’ new assistant coaches, Turner and Leonard have elite talent at their disposal in wide receiver Davante Adams and defensive end Maxx Crosby.
