If Las Vegas Raiders interim coach Antonio Pierce didn’t have the attention of team owner Mark Davis prior to the team’s Week 16 matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs, he certainly has it now after leading the franchise to 20-14 victory against the reigning Super Bowl champs on Monday.
With the win, Pierce improved to 4-3 in his limited tenure with the franchise. Sunday’s victory also sparked a list of Pierce’s former teammates and players calling for him to be considered for the head coaching job permanently.
But with two weeks remaining in the season, Pierce remains focused on notching two more victories to end the ’23 campaign. However, when Pierce was asked how he plans to prove to Davis that he’s the right person to be the Raiders full-time coach, he said the proof has been delivered on the gridiron.
