Seattle Seahawks 2024 head coach interview request tracker
It sounds like Seahawks general manager John Schneider is in the market for another defensive minded head coach. In the wake of last week’s surprise removal of Pete Carroll, we had heard very little news on the search for his replacement. That changed today when we received several reports of official interview requests, most of them for defensive coordinators. It makes sense, given how poorly Seattle’s defense has played over the last six seasons. In 2023 they finished ranked No. 25 in points allowed per game.
The Seahawks are casting a wide net, though – and today’s reported requests include at least one offensive playcaller. Here’s where we will be tracking reports of the team’s interest in potential head coach candidates.
