Pete Carroll was out of football last season. Seemingly retired from coaching after 40 years in the NFL. As such, he took on a new role — college professor. It was announced last December he would be co-teaching a course at USC Marshall called ‘Game is Life’. Six weeks later, he was back in the NFL as head coach of the Las Vegas Raiders.

The Las Vegas Raiders are expected to hire Pete Carroll, who spent 14 seasons leading the Seattle Seahawks, as their new head coach. Carroll, who was a Seahawks adviser this season, has a career record of 170-120-1.

The Las Vegas Raiders are hiring Pete Carroll to be the team’s head coach, according to reports. ESPN’s Adam Schefter and NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero first reported the news. CNN has reached out to the Raiders for comment.
