Former Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll appears poised to make a return to the NFL, having recently interviewed with the Chicago Bears and scheduled to meet with the Las Vegas Raiders next week. The Raiders, who struggled last season with a 4-13 record, have made significant changes by terminating head coach Antonio Pierce and general manager Tom Telesco after just one year. This suggests that the organization is looking for a fresh start and not willing to tolerate subpar performance.

Carroll, who led the Seahawks from 2010 to 2024, is known for his remarkable achievements, including a Super Bowl victory and multiple playoff appearances. Although age is a consideration as he approaches 74, his track record has kept him in demand. The potential for renewed rivalry with Los Angeles Chargers head coach Jim Harbaugh further adds intrigue to Carroll's possible return.
