Chip Kelly’s tenure as the Las Vegas Raiders’ offensive coordinator is already over.
The former Ohio State offensive coordinator, who left the Buckeyes for the Raiders in February, has been fired by the Raiders after just 11 games, according to multiple reports.

Kelly helped lead the Buckeyes to a national championship last season in his lone year as Ohio State’s offensive coordinator before leaving Columbus for Las Vegas.
The Raiders made Kelly the highest-paid coordinator in the NFL, paying him $6 million per year, three times as much as he made as Ohio State’s offensive coordinator in 2024. But he didn’t even make it through one full season in his new job.
A loss to the Cleveland Browns on Sunday, in which the Raiders scored only 10 points, proved to be the final straw. The Raiders are just 2-9 this season and rank in the bottom three of the league in both scoring offense (15.5 points per game) and total offense (269 yards per game).
