New Las Vegas Raiders offensive coordinator Luke Getsy has reportedly made his first hire.
According to NFL insider Ian Rapoport, the Raiders have hired James Cregg as their new offensive line coach. The team has not yet announced the addition.
James Cregg comes from the San Francisco 49ers where he was an assistant offensive line coach. Before that, he was the offensive line coach at Louisana State University. He also previously held the position of assistant offensive line coach with the Raiders in 2007.
