The 44-year-old Spytek has deep connections to Raiders minority owner Tom Brady. Spytek was a freshman outside linebacker at Michigan when the former quarterback was a senior. The duo also won a Super Bowl together with the Bucs in Brady’s first season with Tampa Bay.
Spytek has extensive NFL front-office experience, starting as a Detroit Lions operations intern in 2004. He spent five seasons in Philadelphia (2005-09) where he became a college and pro scout, three years in Cleveland as director of college scouting (2010-12), three seasons as a Denver scout (2013-15, where he won another Super Bowl ring) and joined Tampa in 2016.
With the Raiders locking down Spytek, the next order of business is landing on a new head coach to usher in the latest Vegas reboot.
