Raiders Hire Al Saunders As Offensive Coordinator

Discussion in 'Oakland Raiders' started by BigBlueBruiser, Jan 20, 2011.

  1. As expected, the Oakland Raiders have added Baltimore assistant Al Saunders to their coaching staff. ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported Saunders will be Hue Jackson’s offensive coordinator. Jackson, who had a major impact on Oakland’s offense in 2010, said this week he will call the plays in Oakland, but expect Saunders, who will be 64 next month, to have a big role on the staff. Saunders, who has also been an offensive coordinator in Kansas City and St. Louis, worked with Oakland quarterback Jason Campbell in 2006-07 in Washington as assistant head coach. That experience should help Campbell progress this offseason.
