did they fire pete carroll

Pete Carroll has been fired from his most recent NFL head‑coaching job.

What happened

• Pete Carroll was dismissed as head coach of the Las Vegas Raiders after just one season, in early January 2026.

• The Raiders went 3–14 in that season, finishing tied for the worst record in the NFL despite ending with a narrow win over the Kansas City Chiefs.

When and by whom

• Team owner Mark Davis and the Raiders organization announced that Carroll had been relieved of his duties on the Monday after the regular season ended.

• Reports from major outlets describe it as a “one and done” tenure, emphasizing that he lasted only a single year in Las Vegas.

Context and reasons mentioned

• Expectations were high when the Raiders hired the 74‑year‑old Carroll on a multi‑year deal following his long run with the Seattle Seahawks.

• The Raiders’ offense and defense both struggled badly; during the year he also fired his special teams coordinator and offensive coordinator, but the team still finished with a prolonged losing streak before that final win.

What it means now

• Carroll is currently out of an NFL head‑coaching job, making him part of the 2026 “coaching carousel” of teams changing coaches.

• Given his age and history as an NFL champion and longtime coach, speculation has focused on whether he retires, moves into a front‑office or advisory role, or waits for another opportunity.
