Las Vegas Raiders OC Luke Getsy spoke at Silver and Black training camp today, and we have everything that he said for you

COSTA MESA, Cal.—The Las Vegas Raiders have come to California, Costa Mesa, specifically for training camp, and as always, where the Silver and Black go, so do we.

The pads come on tomorrow for the first time during the 2024 NFL Training Camp; today, we offer OC Luke Getsy and everything he said from training camp.

The Raiders are fortunate to have Antonio Pierce as their head coach. Here is a partial transcript of his most recent press conference.

Q: Is it fair to say you’re more confident as a head coach than you were as a player and there’s no throwing up right now?

Coach Pierce: “I am more confident because as a player, you don’t know what to expect, right? You’re fighting for your life. Training camp back then was six weeks long, there were two-a-days, you were banging every day, it hurt. Now it’s a little different. Here, you can really gauge and control the tempo of your players in practice. There might be days when we have pads on and I don’t feel like it, we’re not going to have pads on. So, you control the narrative, obviously, as a head coach, and I’m going to do what’s best for the players.”

Q: Things were flying a mile a million miles a minute when you got the job as the interim coach. But looking back, how important was that that ramp was built so that there are no surprises anymore? You’re the head coach, they know you, you know them, how important is that for to start off?

Coach Pierce: “Huge. I mean, I know it’s my first head coach training camp. And when you did it nine weeks in the season, in the middle of all hell breaking loose, this is a lot easier, to be honest. But a lot of the things that I learned through those nine weeks of the season really helped prepare me for what’s going on today. And then obviously, I brought in Marvin Lewis, that was really critical for me. There are a lot of things that I bounced off him along with Tom Telesco, who has been in the NFL for 30 years, to make sure I give us the best opportunity to have the best training camp possible, to put us in position to start fast, and to set the tone and ideally, what we want this Raider team to look like.”
