71-year-old Pete Carroll had NFL fans in awe with his Mahomes-like QB play at Seahawks practice

Did Pete Carroll ever play quarterback before becoming a football coach? That’s the first question you’re going to ask after watching this video of him shredding the Seattle Seahawks secondary at a recent practice.

So, I’ll go ahead and answer it for you now. Yes, he did, actually! Carroll was a three-sport star in high school, playing three positions in football, including QB.

Still, that doesn’t make this video of the now 71-year-old dusting those skills off any less impressive. He’s scrambling, making side-arm throws, getting the ball down the field with accuracy — watch out Geno Smith, coach is coming for your job!

Did I spy a no-look throw?! Carroll had NFL fans on X in awe with this video.
