“Coach and Matt took the organization to new heights during their decade together,” Seahawks President Chuck Arnold said in a statement. “From our first Super Bowl appearance to countless memories on and off the field, we celebrate their legacy and the lasting impact they had on the 12s and the entire Pacific Northwest.”
Holmgren arrived from Green Bay as Seattle’s coach and general manager in 1999 and led the Seahawks to five division titles and the team’s first Super Bowl appearance in 2005, losing to Pittsburgh in the championship game. Holmgren had a winning record in seven of his 10 seasons with the Seahawks and had a 90-80 record — regular and postseason combined — during his time in Seattle.
