Norv Turner has spent the last few year away from the NFL, but he is now set to bring more than three decades of coaching experience to his senior advisor role with the Raiders.
The NFL has been a key part of Norv Turner's life for decades. At one point during his coaching journey, Turner spent the 2004 and 2005 seasons as the head coach of the Raiders franchise. On Tuesday, the team announced that Turner is set to make his return to the organization. He will work in a senior advisor capacity during his second stint. The announcement of Turner's return comes amid a five-game losing streak, which has contributed to sweeping changes to the Raiders coaching staff.
Turner is expected to work with Raiders head coach Antonio Pierce, the former linebacker who is in his first full season as an NFL head coach. Tom Coughlin, who won two Super Bowls with the New York Giants during his head coaching tenure, will also continue in his role as a consultant to Pierce. Turner won two Super Bowls when he was the Dallas Cowboys offensive coordinator in the early 1990s. He ended his two-year run as the Raiders head coach with a 9-23 record. He spent a total of 15 seasons as an NFL head coach and compiled a 114-122-1 record.
