NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports the Raiders are interviewing Rams defensive pass game coordinator/assistant HC Aubrey Pleasant for their DC role under new HC Klint Kubiak.
Pleasant was also interviewed for the Cardinals and Browns DC openings, though Arizona is retaining Nick Rallis. He’s the first known candidate for Las Vegas’ DC vacancy.
Pleasant, 38, took his first college coaching job in 2012 with Michigan as their assistant DB coach. From there, he worked for the Browns and Washington before joining the Rams in 2017.
Pleasant has coached both sides of the ball and eventually settled in as the Rams’ CBs coach. Pleasant eventually landed with the Lions in 2021 as their defensive back coach and passing game coordinator but was fired in 2022.
From there, Pleasant finished out the remainder of the 2022 season as a consultant for Green Bay before rejoining the Rams in a new capacity. He was given the assistant head coach title last offseason.
