Chip Kelly said the opportunity to finally work alongside new Raiders head coach Pete Carroll after the pair had orbited each other as adversaries in previous jobs was a chief reason for his return to the NFL.

Chip Kelly said leaving Ohio State to become the Las Vegas Raiders' offensive coordinator allowed him to return to the highest-level of the sport.

The Las Vegas Raiders were in search of a true offensive mind for their offensive coordinator position. Former conference rivals, Pete Carroll and Chip Kelly team up in Las Vegas.
