Seahawks promote offensive assistants Dave Canales, Austin Davis

The Seahawks have promoted offensive assistants Dave Canales and Austin Davis, it was confirmed Tuesday.

Canales, who has been the quarterbacks coach the past two years, will now serve as pass-game coordinator for the offense. Davis, who was an offensive assistant last year, will now take over as quarterbacks coach.

Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated’s Monday Morning Quarterback, who was the first with the news, reported that the move was made because Davis was getting offers from other teams and the promotions were a way to keep both with the team.

Davis was Seattle’s backup quarterback in 2017 as part of a seven-year NFL career before he moved into coaching last year with the Seahawks (he was in camp with Seattle in 2018 but placed on Injured Reserve at the end of the preseason and then released).
