The Raiders may be closer to filling a staff position, dipping into the college ranks for a defensive coordinator.
According to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network, the Raiders have offered a two-year contract to Louisville defensive coordinator Todd Grantham. That suggests it hasn’t necessarily been accepted yet, which leaves some room for haggling.
They met with him recently, and it apparently went well.
Grantham has been in college the last five years, working at Georgia and Louisville. He had previous stints with the Browns, Cowboys, Colts and Texans.
