Up next for popular coaching candidate Mike McDaniel is an interview with the Las Vegas Raiders on Monday in Miami, NFL Network reported Saturday.

Since being fired by the Dolphins on Jan. 8, McDaniel has interviewed for the head coaching vacancies in Atlanta, Cleveland, Baltimore and Tennessee. He also was scheduled to meet with Detroit about its offensive coordinator opening.

The Raiders, who parted ways with Pete Carroll after a 3-14 season, hold the No. 1 overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft and are in position to grab Heisman Trophy-winning Indiana quarterback Fernando Mendoza.

McDaniel, 42, posted a 35-33 record over four seasons in Miami, including a 7-10 record this season. He led the Dolphins to the playoffs in 2022 and 2023.

McDaniel was an assistant with the San Francisco 49ers from 2017-21, the last year as offensive coordinator. He previously worked as wide receivers coach with the Browns (2014) and as an offensive assistant with the Falcons (2015-16).
