Following the close of the 2022 season for the Seattle Seahawks, associate head coach/defense Sean Desai interviewed with several teams. The list included the Cleveland Browns, Denver Broncos and others, before he eventually landed with the defending NFC champion Philadelphia Eagles as their defensive coordinator.
In the wake of his departure, there was some uncertainty as to whether or not the Seahawks would fill the role that had been created specifically for Desai last offseason, but according to a report from Bob Condotta of the Seattle Times, the Hawks are set to hire a former Minnesota Vikings assistant to the role.
