The Las Vegas Raiders have their full-time offensive coordinator.

The Raiders announced the hiring of Luke Getsy to be their offensive coordinator. Getsy held the same role for the Chicago Bears for the last two NFL seasons.

Overall, Getsy has 17 years of coaching experience, nine of which have been spent in the NFL.

Getsy's coaching career began when he served as a graduate assistant for his alma mater, the University of Akron, for the 2007 and 2008 college football seasons. 

Then, Getsky became the offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach at West Virginia Wesleyan College for the 2009 season. He would go back to being a graduate assistant for his other alma mater, the University of Pittsburgh, in 2010.

Getsy became offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach at Indiana University of Pennsylvania, where he held the role for the 2011 and 2012 seasons. In 2013, Getsy was hired as wide receivers coach at Western Michigan.

Then came Getsy's first coaching stint in the NFL when the Green Bay Packers brought him on staff to be an offensive quality control coach in 2014. 

Then Getsy became the Packers' wide receivers coach in 2016. His top receiver was none other than Davante Adams, now with the Raiders, who would make his first Pro Bowl that season.

Getsy would go back to the college level in 2018 when he was hired as the offensive coordinator and wide receivers coach at Mississippi State. He was there for only one season before returning to the Packers in 2019 to become the team's quarterbacks coach.
