Tollner and Marshall Ready to Join Raiders Staff

Our friends at the National Football Post have broken the story about some coordinators coming to the club to be on Tom Cable’s staff. Here is the post:

Ted Tollner, a former longtime NFL and college coach, is expected to be named offensive coordinator of the Oakland Raiders, according to National Football Post sources. In addition, the Raiders are also likely to name John Marshall as their defensive coordinator.

Tollner, 68, has 30 years of NFL and college coaching experience and is a former San Francisco 49ers quarterbacks coach, including stints from 2002-2004 and November 2007 to January 2009. His college head coaching stops include USC and San Diego State.

Marshall, 63, spent the previous three seasons in Seattle as the Seahawks defensive coordinator. In addition, he has served as defensive coordinator for the Falcons, 49ers and Panthers.

The Raiders remain without a head coach, although interim coach Tom Cable is expected to retain the title.
