Upon reading of the Raiders interesting McKenzie, I believed Winston Moss would be his first Head Coach if he let go of Hue Jackson. I still think so too. Winston Moss has been interviewed for the Raiders HC once before I recall correctly.
Word is around here, Shawn Slocum is searching for a new residence in the Oakland area. 🤷

But according to Hue Jackson, McKenzie is "going to gut this place." So my guess is McKenzie is trying to get rid of all the old ways, such as not keeping secrets secret and attacking the media for telling the truth and stop lying with the media.
For years the Raiders have planed to fire someone and some how it'd leak to the media before it's leak to the official team speakers and the official team speakers would deny all of it and then call the media lies and rumormonger only for the media to be correct that the Raiders were gonna fire that person. Happen to the defensive coordinator this year.
Hmmm Shawn Slocum? ... will the Packers let him go? ... If Slocum is under contract I don't think the Raiders can take him with out permission for the Packers... also teams often times only let guys go if they're getting a raise. As the Packers did with their WR coach Jimmy Robinson (who became WR coach/Assistant Head Coach with the Cowboys. It sounded like Mike McCarthy thought Robinson was gonna retire before his friend (Cowboys head coach) talked Robinson out of it and coming down there to coach for a little while.
