Oakland Raiders promote Tom Cable to interim coach

Associated Press

ALAMEDA, Calif. — The Oakland Raiders have promoted offensive line coach Tom Cable to interim head coach.

Owner Al Davis says the 43-year-old Cable will replace Lane Kiffin, who was fired earlier Tuesday just four games into his second season.

Kiffin had a 5-15 record since being hired last year. He lost his final game 28-18 to San Diego on Sunday.
