Raiders head coach Klint Kubiak earns spot on NFL list

Las Vegas Raiders head coach Klint Kubiak was named to The Athletic's annual 50 under 40 list, which identifies rising coaches and executives across the NFL. Kubiak joined the Raiders organization this offseason following a Super Bowl LX victory as the offensive coordinator for the Seattle Seahawks. He is currently overseeing the development of first-round draft pick quarterback Fernando Mendoza while naming Kirk Cousins the starter for Week 1. In addition to Kubiak, Raiders director of college scouting Brandon Yeargan also earned a spot on the list for his efforts in team-building infrastructure alongside general manager John Spytek. The organization expects these additions to help accelerate the team's ongoing roster rebuild. Kubiak previously served as a coordinator under his father, former NFL head coach Gary Kubiak.
