Hugs will wait as Raiders’ ex-Seahawks trio hopes to spoil reunion with former team

Andrew Janocko, Rick Dennison and head coach Klint Kubiak will face their former Seattle Seahawks colleagues when the Raiders host them on Sunday. The reunion comes after the trio helped Seattle win the Super Bowl, then moved to Las Vegas, where Kubiak is tasked with leading the Raiders and developing rookie quarterback Fernando Mendoza.

Kubiak was named Raiders head coach the day after Seattle’s February championship, and brought Janocko to run the offence and Dennison to coach the offensive line. Janocko said he has worn his Super Bowl ring only twice, at his wife’s request, and plans to save hugs with former colleagues until after the game. Mendoza’s first NFL start is expected to draw much of the attention.
