Josh McDaniels
Head Coach
Josh McDaniels – Raiders Head Coach
It seems as if Josh McDaniels was born to be a head football coach. He was born during our bicentennial year of 1976, to a legend in Ohio high school football coaching.
In fact, not only did Josh learn coaching from his dad, he got his first coaching job through a good word to a connection. This connection happened to be the great Nick Saban, who was an assistant coach for Michigan State at the time.
Josh got his NFL start in 2001 as an assistant for the Patriots. He served various teams as an assistant and head coach. Most recently, before coming to the Raiders, he was the long-time offensive coordinator for the Patriots under Bill Belichick.
Let’s bring the title to Vegas, coach!
Josh McDaniels Calls Henderson Home
Moving to Las Vegas in June 2022, the McDaniels have made Henderson, Nevada home. We added a few pictures of the house they bought.
You can see more pictures of their custom home in our Raiders Real Estate Section.

Laura McDaniels – Josh’s Raider Lady
New Image Coming Soon
There was a brief period when he was away from coaching. While working in a plastics factory in Cleveland. Josh met his wife, Laura Johncock, in 2000. They hit it off immediately.
Of course, she was well aware that coaching was his career choice and completely supported that. Josh and Laura have been devoted to each other ever since. They have four beautiful children, Neenah, Livia, Maddie, and Jack.
Living In Las Vegas
Josh is an avid golfer. His new home in Henderson is surrounded by a golf course. His backyard has a golf view, and when he walks out the front door, the course is directly across the street. I don’t think the media room for viewing game films was the biggest draw… Click on the left picture to see the rest of the house.
