Sources: Raiders hire Jack Del Rio [View all]

The Oakland Raiders have hired Denver Broncos defensive coordinator Jack Del Rio as their next head coach, league sources told ESPN.

An announcement of the agreement is expected as early as Wednesday, league sources told ESPN.

Sources told ESPN that Del Rio interviewed Tuesday night with owner Mark Davis, general manager Reggie McKenzie and former Raiders coach John Madden, the Hall of Famer who has been a proponent of Del Rio.

The other finalist for the job was Tony Sparano, who was the interim coach for the final 12 games of the season.
