The fact that a formal meeting with team owner Mark Davis hasn’t happened yet means that Pierce is no lock to return for a second full season in silver and black.

Antonio Pierce is operating as if he will remain the coach of the Las Vegas Raiders after a 4-13 season, though he had yet to meet with team owner Mark Davis and general manager Tom Telesco when he addressed reporters in his end-of-season news conference Monday.

The Raiders won just enough to lose the top pick in the 2025 draft but it's possible the team keeps Antonio Pierce around next season.
