Marvin Lewis Returns to the NFL as Assistant Head Coach for Las Vegas Raiders

Years ago, Marvin Lewis, the former head coach of the Cincinnati Bengals for 16 struggling seasons, is making a comeback in the NFL. After leaving the Bengals in 2018, Lewis ventured into TV analysis before taking on roles as a special advisor and co-defensive coordinator at Arizona State University. Now, he will be joining the Las Vegas Raiders as an assistant head coach, as reported by ProFootballTalk. This move reunites Lewis with Antonio Pierce, his former colleague at Arizona State. Pierce, who served as the interim head coach for the Raiders this season, has now been named the permanent head coach. The players in Las Vegas have shown their support for Pierce, expressing their desire for him to remain as their leader. Despite having star players like Davante Adams and Maxx Crosby, the Raiders had a disappointing season, winning only eight games. With questions surrounding the quarterback position, there are rumors that the team may pursue Russell Wilson if he becomes available or trade up in the upcoming draft to secure a top quarterback.
