![Josh McDaniels: 'I'm not Bill [Belichick], and I can't be'](https://bdc2020.o0bc.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/Josh-McDaniels-62924540a80c0-scaled.jpg)
The news of legendary New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick agreeing to go to the college ranks and take over the program at North Carolina created shockwaves throughout the NFL on Wednesday.
It didn’t take long for a Las Vegas Raiders’ connection to emerge. ESPN reported that Raiders’ interim offensive coordinator Scott Turner is a possibility to join Belichick’s staff in Chapel Hill as the Tar Heels’ offensive coordinator.
Turner was the Raiders passing game coordinator since 2023 and he was promoted to the interim offensive coordinator job in November after Luke Getsy was fired.
Turner was hired by Josh McDaniels in Las Vegas. McDaniels is close with Belichick. Many thought McDaniels could join Belichick in North Carolina as well.
Turner, 42, hasn’t coached in the college ranks since he was an offensive analyst at Michigan in 2017.
If Turner were to join Belichick’s staff is not known if he would leave the Raiders immediately or wait until after the season.
