The Las Vegas Raiders are working to finalize a deal to hire Antonio Pierce as their head coach, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter on Friday.

The Raiders made Pierce their interim head coach on Halloween after the firing of Josh McDaniels.

Following the Raiders' season-ending 27-14 victory over the Denver Broncos, owner Mark Davis told ESPN he is "really excited" about the job Pierce did in leading the team to a 5-4 finish after he took over as interim head coach.
