The Raiders' new coach — and GM John Spytek — expressed plenty of optimism about their new roles with the team Monday in Las Vegas.

The Raiders fired GM Tom Telesco and head coach Antonio Pierce after one full season that finished 4-13. The Raiders hired John Spytek earlier this week to replace Telesco as GM. Carroll is tasked with bringing stability to a franchise that has had three head coaches in three seasons after Pierce replaced Josh McDaniel in 2023.
