RENTON, Wash. -- After calling plays from the sideline during his first two seasons with the Seattle Seahawks and for most of his career as an offensive coordinator, Brian Schottenheimer is now doing so from the coaches' booth.
The move upstairs has presented one challenge: longer walks to and from the locker room during those frantic 12 minutes that make up an NFL halftime. It's usually more of a jog, especially when the offense is getting the ball to start the second half. That was the case during the Seahawks' opener in Atlanta, where the coaches' booths and visitors' locker room are on opposite ends of Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
