Las Vegas Raiders head coach Klint Kubiak continues to fill out his coaching staff. He made a familiar appointment on Thursday. Rick Dennison, who possesses significant ties to the Kubiak family, has been hired as offensive line coach. Dennison could have a massive impact on the Raiders' run game.
The Raiders' rushing attack ranked dead-least at 32nd in the league this past season. They averaged just 77.5 yards per game. Interestingly enough, the Seattle Seahawks were in a similar position last offseason when Kubiak and Dennison came in and improved them.
The Seahawks ranked 28th in rushing during the 2024 campaign. They hired Kubiak and Dennison to help fix the run game last offseason. In 2025, they improved to 11th, and their rushing attack was crucial to them winning Super Bowl 60.
Dennison is an outstanding hire for Kubiak. A former offensive coordinator, he has won four Super Bowls on coaching staffs with the Kubiak family. He's coached the likes of Arian Foster, Dalvin Cook, LeSean McCoy, Alvin Kamara, and most recently, Super Bowl 60-winning MVP Kenneth Walker III, team reporter Levi Edwards pointed out.
Dennison should have a profound impact on the Raiders' rushing attack. That's excellent news for sophomore running back Ashton Jeanty, who ran behind the most ineffective run-blocking unit in the league as a rookie. Jeanty could break out under Kubiak and Dennison in 2026.
