Pete Carroll once said, “The only competition that matters is the one that takes place within yourself.” And now, that quote feels more fitting than ever. With his recent move to the Las Vegas Raiders, Carroll’s drive to improve is on full display. Get ready for a season of cryptic tweets and draft hints as he sets his sights on building a stronger team.

The Raiders finished with a 7-10 record, which was a slight improvement from their 6-11 record the previous season. Now, the Super Bowl-winning coach will look to improve the offensive line and the QB issues. But for these services, Carrol is charging a handsome amount, which is much better than his last paycheck at the Seahawks. He’s surely getting a boost for his net worth.

What is Carroll’s net worth?

Alright, let’s break down Carroll’s net worth. Though there’s no official confirmation, speculations say he’s sitting at $40 million. Most of that comes from his stint as one of the highest-paid coaches in the NFL. We’re talking more than $8 million a year just from coaching the Seattle Seahawks, where his total record stands at 137-89-1. And that’s not counting the big bucks he piled up during his college coaching days at USC, where he won a national championship.

You know, Carroll’s time at USC was quite expensive. During his nine-year run from 2001 to 2009, he was reportedly making around $3 million per year. He loves to pass on his sports knowledge. He has written the book ‘Win Forever: Live, Work, and Play Like a Champion.’ Alongside that, he has co-written ‘UC Win Forever: Live, Work, & Play Like a Champion’ and ‘Compete to Create.’ These books also add to Carroll’s net worth through royalties.

What is Pete Carroll’s salary?

The Las Vegas Raiders came knocking with a sweet contract for Pete Carroll: reportedly a hefty million-dollar deal for three years, with a possible fourth-year extension. But the story starts way back.

It was the mid-90s, and Carroll was trying to find his groove as the head coach of the New York Jets. The salary? Not exactly a jaw-dropper, but everyone’s gotta start somewhere. Then there’s his stint with the New England Patriots from 1997 to 1999, making around $1 million per year, and he had them at 27-21. Here comes the plot twist—Carroll decides to leap back into college football.

But the real treasure chest opened up when he headed to Seattle in 2010. Pete led the Seahawks to Super Bowl glory in 2014, stacking up about $8 million a year. The guy’s practically printing money by now. Over his tenure in Seattle, he earned approximately $75 million over five years.

The Raiders have surely bagged the experience this time. But why did the Seahawks part ways with him in the first place? Carroll wanted to make changes to keep the team competitive, but the higher-ups didn’t quite get his vision. So, after a 9-8 season that just missed the playoffs, the Seahawks decided to end their journey with Carroll.

But all that’s in the past now. He’s found a new home now with the Raiders, and fans have Tom Brady to thank for that. Yep, it was Brady who kind of brokered the deal, landing Carroll at the Raiders. Welcome back, legend!
