“We all have a responsibility here,” Bisaccia told reporters. “Have to be held accountable to our words and our actions. No one person is bigger than the Raiders shield.”

The 61-year-old was named the interim coach on Monday following Gruden’s resignation. Gruden had reportedly used racist, sexist and anti-gay language in emails sent to former Washington Football Team president Bruce Allen, according to Ken Belson and Katherine Rosman of the New York Times.

Bisaccia previously served as the team’s special teams coordinator and is in his 20th season as an NFL coach, including his fourth campaign with the Raiders. He has been an assistant head coach since 2019.
