Former Seahawks coach Pete Carroll and the Raiders agreed to a three-year contract with a team option for a fourth year, according to a report.

The Las Vegas Raiders are negotiating a deal to hire Pete Carroll to be their new head coach, a person with knowledge of the decision told The Associated Press.
