While Carroll clearly wants to get back into the business of coaching the game at the highest level, he should steer clear.

After reportedly interviewing for the Chicago Bears' coaching vacancy, veteran coach Pete Carroll is said to have lined up a second interview with a different team. Carroll will interview for the Las Vegas Raiders' head coaching job next week,

Hughes’ NFL experience includes a two-year stint as the Vikings’ defensive backs coach under Bud Grant in 1982 and 1983, giving him a connection with one of the Raiders’ head coach candidates. Grant retired after the 1983 season, but returned to Minnesota in 1985 and hired Pete Carroll in Hughes’ former position.
