We knew the moment Klint Kubiak was named Raiders head coach, he would be attempting to lure several Seahawks assistants to join in him Las Vegas. The first reported interview request came out on Thursday with the Raiders set to interview WR coach Frisman Jackson for their vacant OC position.

Well, Friday the Raiders put in another request. This one the Seahawks blocked.


The Raiders requested Seahawks assistant Justin Outten for run-game coordinator but Seattle blocked the request, per sources.

Outten was named among the in-house candidates the Seahawks are interviewing for offensive coordinator after Kubiak left to become the Raiders head coach. He is the Seahawks' run game specialist and assistant offensive line coach. He has been an NFL coach for the past ten years, including as OC in Denver in 2022.

If the Seahawks are blocking the request, he must be a serious contender for their OC job. Or at least they want to finish that process before letting the Raiders have a shot at him. Even if Outten doesn't get the OC job there, it's very possible he could receive a promotion along with several Seahawks assistants.
