Las Vegas Raiders coach Antonio Pierce took a moment to reflect on his first complete offseason as a head coach in the National Football League.
Las Vegas Raiders coach Antonio Pierce recently completed his first offseason as a professional head coach. He took a moment to reflect on what has been a different experience for him, as the former player experienced the offseason from a new position than he’s ever experienced."Productive,” Pierce said. “I asked the coaches from the jump to put X's and O's to the side a little bit in the offseason as we started up in phases one and two and got to know one another.
“When we got on the grass, you can see the excitement, the passion, the love, the effort to play the game. I think the best part about the offseason, you're still in school. And in a sense, when I say you're in school, you're learning. There's been adjustments that the coaches have come up with. We have new staff obviously on offense. Defensively, we added some new pieces to the coaching staff. A lot of good ideas.
With the offseason coming to an end, the Raiders players will get some time away from football. This will give them time to rest before training camp starts and the grind of another NFL season approaches. Pierce and the coaching staff, however, will continue working behind the scenes in an effort to be as prepared as possible.
“That's the best part about it because now, over the next five weeks, as Patrick Graham would say, you get into the lab. Luke , you get in the lab, Tom , myself, we get in the lab, and we make the adjustments necessary for what team we have now,”. “Because when we first started in phase two, we didn't even have a draft. We didn't have the rookie class. We didn't have all these other pieces.
