news flash: Seattle Seahawks have announced the departure of new QB just now….

Former Pass Game Coordinator Hired by Seattle Seahawks to Fill Quarterbacks Coach Position – Report

Pete Carroll’s 14-year career, which included one Super Bowl Championship, will come to an end with the Seattle Seahawks next season, ushering in a new era. After a fruitful ten years with his prior team, Mike Macdonald, the former defensive coordinator for the Baltimore Ravens, will take his first stab at managing an NFL team. On Saturday, Macdonald made another personnel change to bolster his coaching staff. The Seahawks front office will appoint former longtime passing game coordinator Charles London as their next quarterback coach, according to NFL insider Aaron Wilson.
The Seahawks have started the 2024 offseason with a number of personnel changes. Leslie Frazier, the former head coach of the Minnesota Vikings, was brought in as an assistant frontman, and Ryan Grubb was selected as the team’s next offensive coordinator from the college ranks. Under the same job title, they also hired Jay Harbaugh, a former special teams coordinator for the Michigan Wolverines.

Charles London Will Assist Geno Smith in the Upcoming Season

In 2024, Charles London will work with seasoned gunslinger Geno Smith as the quarterbacks coach for the Seattle Seahawks. Last season, London oversaw the pass game and served as the quarterbacks coach for the Tennessee Titans. With London, the Titans had a terrible game; they threw for just 3,067 yards and 14 touchdowns, which are both below average. Nonetheless, in nine starts, rookie quarterback Will Levis performed admirably, tossing for 1,808 yards and eight touchdowns against four picks. London spent 2021–2022 as the quarterbacks coach for the Atlanta Falcons prior to joining Tennessee. In neither of the two seasons, the Falcons were able to pass for more than 20 touchdowns.
Smith, meanwhile, will start his third season as the quarterback for the Seattle Seahawks after the group earlier this week guaranteed his salary through 2024. Throwing for 3,624 yards and 20 touchdowns against nine picks, Smith had a strong 2023 campaign. He didn’t, however, quite live up to his MVP-caliber 2022 campaign, in which he threw an NFC-high 30 touchdowns.

Seattle Seahawks: Hoping to Make It Back to the Playoffs in the Autumn

Last year was the third time since 2012 that the Seahawks did not make it to the postseason. Pete Carroll, Seattle’s longtime head coach, was fired as a result of the fallout. They need to improve on their 25th-ranked defense from the previous season under their new bench boss, defensive-minded Mike Macdonald. Against the NFC West team, opposing backfields dominated, averaging 4.6 yards per carry while rushing for 2,352 yards and 24 touchdowns. They did, however, fare better in the secondary, allowing just 19 touchdowns to be passed by opposing quarterbacks.
