The final ten games of Navorro Bowman’s career as a player was spent with the Raiders. Now his first NFL linebackers coach job will be spent with the Raiders’ rival chargers, joining his former head coach Jim Harbaugh in Los Angeles.

Bowman joins a group of former NFL linebackers to get promotions this offseason, including Raiders head coach Antonio Pierce, Patriots head coach Jerod Mayo and LB coach Dont’a Hightower, and Ravens defensive coordinator Zach Orr.
Last offseason it was Demeco Ryans who took over as head coach in Houston and led the Texans to their best record in four years. That success no doubt paved the way for some of the other jobs given to former NFL linebackers.
