According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the Oakland Raiders will hire Denver Broncos defensive coordinator Dennis Allen as their next head coach.
Allen is the first defensive head coach that the Raiders have hired since they hired John Madden back in 1969. Madden at the time was a linebackers coach.
Now that Allen is leaving the Broncos, they’ll be looking for their seventh defensive coordinator in seven seasons.
