The Las Vegas Raiders are expected to add former Seattle Seahawks run game coordinator and senior offensive advisor to Klink Kubiak’s coaching staff, according to CBS Sports’ Matt Zenitz.

Dennison brings 30 years of NFL coaching experience to the Raiders. His first coaching job was in 1995 as an offensive assistant with the Denver Broncos, working for Klint’s father, Gary Kubiak, who was the offensive coordinator in Denver at the time. Dennison coached for the Broncos until 2009, serving as the offensive coordinator from 2006 to 2008, before joining Gary’s coaching staff as the Houston Texans’ OC from 2010 to 2013. So, he knows the Kubiak family well.

The well-tenured coach also has had stints with the Baltimore Ravens (2014), another run as the Broncos’ offensive coordinator (2015-2016), Buffalo Bills (2017), New York Jets (2018), and worked with Klint during their time with the Minnesota Vikings (2019-2021), New Orleans Saints (2024) and last season in Seattle.

During his time in the NFL, Dennison has won four Super Bowls, three with the Broncos and one a little more than a week ago in Seattle. Additionally, the Seahawks ranked 10th in rushing yards last season with Kubiak and Dennison calling the shots.

Zenitz did not specify what Dennison’s role will be in Las Vegas. Silver and Black Pride will update this story when his job title becomes public.
