Offensive coordinator Chip Kelly was relieved of his duties following an anemic performance by his unit in a 24-10 loss to the Cleveland Browns.
The Raiders have yet to reach 30 points in a game this season and the offensive line gave up an astounding 10 sacks in Sunday’s loss. Kelly released a statement through Fox’s Jay Glazer following the move, where he expressed gratitude for his time with the team and with Geno Smith.

But hey, we gotta win. I get it.”
While Kelly’s offense certainly wasn’t good enough to preserve his job for next season, it’s hard to make him too much of a scapegoat while Carroll’s two sons are occupying crucially underperforming positions in the coaching staff. Carroll’s eldest son Brennan coaches the team’s league-worst offensive line, and his youngest son Nathan is the assistant quarterback coach in a room that leads the entire NFL in interceptions.
The Raiders are set to travel to Los Angeles next week for a date with the Chargers that will kick off at 1:25 p.m. PST.
