The Seattle Seahawks reportedly don’t plan to trade franchise QB Russell Wilson once the 2021 season is finally over. With Wilson under contract for two more years and armed with a no-trade clause, we can assume he’s going nowhere this year. That leaves only one other major question mark hanging over the organization heading into the 2022 offseason: the fate of their head coach, Pete Carroll.
Carroll has been as successful as any coach in the NFC since he was hired back in 2010. Seattle has gone 118-73-1 in the regular season under Carroll and 10-8 in the playoffs, including a Super Bowl victory in 2013. However, the team hasn’t advanced past the divisional round since 2014 and there’s a strong case to make that Carroll has taken Seattle as far as it will go.
According to Mike Garafolo at NFL Network, Carroll will be meeting with team owner Jody Allen next week to discuss his future.
