Raiders could be hiring a nasty defensive coordinator

The Oakland Raiders hired head coach Jack Del Rio almost a month ago and he has been assembling a staff in a quick fashion, however, at the defensive coordinator position they have taken their time finding a new defensive play caller. They might have a guy in mind though.

According to Scott Bair of CSN Bay Area, Del Rios former teammate, Ken Norton Jr., is free to interview.

Bair writes:

‘The Raiders were finally free to contact and speak with coaches from Seattle and New England following Sunday’s Super Bowl. Seahawks linebackers coach Ken Norton, Jr. has been linked to the Raiders DC job several times. He and Del Rio are close from their playing days in Dallas.’
