Carol Davis, mother of Las Vegas Raiders owner Mark Davis and wife of the late former owner Al Davis, died Friday, Oct. 24, the team said Sunday, Oct. 26.

She was 93.

"Carol provided unbridled support and unparalleled guidance to the Davis family and the Raiders organization for over 60 years," the team said in a statement announcing her death. "Her direct impact on the Greatness (sic) of the Raiders continues to be felt, cherished, and honored, and is woven into the fabric of this historic franchise. If Al was the heart of the Raiders, Carol was the soul."

Al Davis started coaching the Oakland Raiders in 1963 while the team was still part of the American Football League, which he briefly led until it merged with the NFL. Davis eventually became the owner of the team and passed it down to his son, and the family also owns the WNBA's Las Vegas Aces.

The Raiders won three Super Bowls while Carol Davis was the "First Lady of Raider Nation." She was in Canton, Ohio in 2021 for the Pro Football Hall of Fame enshrinement of former Raider Tom Flores.

A public memorial will be planned following a private service in Oakland, per the team.
