Las Vegas Raiders coach Pete Carroll has retained defensive coordinator Patrick Graham, a person familiar with the decision said Thursday. The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the team didn't announce the move.

The Las Vegas Raiders have their new head coach in 73-year-old Pete Carroll, who is charged with getting this organization back to winning ways. Arguably the most important decision Carroll will make is who his next quarterback will be.

The Raiders owner expects that Carroll and Spytek will be the right fits for their jobs — and will be with the team for the duration.
