Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll hinted that Seattle will play more naps with nickel packages on defense this coming season.
The Seahawks played a lot of 4-3 base defense in 2019. More than any defense in the NFL. The reason for this is that Seahawks coach Pete Carroll wanted his best players on defense on the field. This included linebacker Mychal Kendrick.
