Sources close to the National Football Post just informed us that the Oakland Raiders have offered former Green Bay Packers assistant Lionel Washington the job to coach the Oakland secondary.
Washington spent the last ten years with the Green Bay Packers, most recently as their defensive backs coach.
Between the Washington offer and the recent interviewing of Ed Donatell, what this most likely means for the Raiders is that current interim head coach Tom Cable is putting a staff together in anticipation of becoming Oakland’s official head coach. More on this story as it develops.
