The Oakland Raiders have hired former New York Jets offensive coordinator Tony Sparano as their assistant head coach/offensive line.

The hiring was announced Wednesday by head coach Dennis Allen.

Sparano, who was fired as the Jets' offensive coordinator after one season, had earlier interviewed to become the Kansas City Chiefs' offensive line coach. Andy Reid had said the interview went well, but he ultimately hired Andy Heck for the position.

Talk about living the good life?.. I think technicaly he's getting paid by three teams this season!..

Not sure how coaches contracts work for gaurenteed money or buyouts but he still had years left on the Dolphins and the Jets contracts and now signs a new one with the Raiders...

Haha more power to him I guess...

I thought he was a tool for going to the jets but man . . . I think he suffered enough

He sure didn't make us pay for letting him go, did he?

Anyways, good luck to him. The style of offense is changing in the NFL and he hasn't really shown any ability to go with the changes.
