The Oakland Raiders interviewed Denver Broncos defensive coordinator Jack Del Rio on Saturday for their head coaching vacancy, a person with knowledge of the interview told the Associated Press on condition of anonymity.

Del Rio, a former USC standout who grew up in the Bay Area, previously was the Jacksonville Jaguars coach for nine seasons. He had a 68-71 regular-season record and made the playoffs in 2005 and 2007.

The Raiders also have interviewed Philadelphia Eagles offensive coordinator Pat Shurmur. Seattle Coach Pete Carroll told SiriusXM NFL Radio earlier this week that Seahawks offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell also interviewed for the job.

Oakland is also reportedly interested in interviewing San Francisco assistant Eric Mangini and Indianapolis offensive coordinator Pep Hamilton.
