A second name has now surfaced in the Seattle Seahawks’ hunt for a new offensive coordinator. According to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero, Seattle has spoken with former Philadelphia Eagles coach, Doug Pederson.
“The #Seahawks have spoken with former #Eagles coach Doug Pederson about their offensive coordinator job, per sources,” Pelissero tweeted on Saturday. “Fired five days ago, Pederson may also still end up drawing interest for another head-coaching job. His options are developing.”
The Seahawks parted ways with former offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer following Seattle’s loss to the Rams in the wild-card round. Schottenheimer had been hired in 2018 and spent three seasons with the team.
Seattle has also had recent discussions about the offensive coordinator position with another former head coach, ex-Chargers’ Anthony Lynn.
