February 3, 2025 – Las Vegas, NV – In a major coaching move, the Las Vegas Raiders have announced the hiring of Matt Capurro, former VP of Coaching Operations for the Seattle Seahawks. Capurro, who spent an impressive 15 years in Seattle, is returning to the Raiders to join head coach Pete Carroll’s staff as his right-hand man.
Capurro’s return to the Raiders is particularly notable as he previously worked for the franchise for six years, serving as a coaches’ assistant under legendary head coaches Art Shell, Lane Kiffin, Tom Cable, Norv Turner, and Bill Callahan, all under the watchful eye of the late, great Al Davis. His deep experience with the Raiders’ unique culture and legacy makes him a natural fit for this new role, one that many believe will strengthen the team’s coaching staff and organizational operations.
Raiders fans are already buzzing over the move, calling it another “great hire” that adds a wealth of football knowledge and leadership experience to the team. Capurro’s reputation for player development, his experience working alongside Carroll in Seattle, and his familiarity with the Raiders’ structure and philosophy make him a vital addition to the coaching staff.
“I’m excited to welcome Matt back to the Raider Nation,” said Raiders’ head coach Pete Carroll. “His deep understanding of our team, the game, and the culture we’re building here will be an invaluable asset. We’ve worked together before, and I have full confidence in his ability to contribute to our success moving forward.”
Capurro’s move back to the Raiders marks a full-circle moment for both the coach and the franchise, reinforcing the organization’s commitment to fostering continuity and elevating its leadership.
Stay tuned as the Raiders continue to build their coaching staff and prepare for an exciting season ahead.
