Seahawks Have Finally Found Their Next Head Coach

According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, the Seattle Seahawks are expected to hire Baltimore Ravens defensive coordinator Mike Macdonald as their new head coach. 


Macdonald is 36 and will now become the NFL's youngest head coach. 



Macdonald has been in the coaching world for a while now and has been with the Ravens organization for a while. He started coaching with the Ravens in 2014 and served in several different coaching positions on the defense until 2020. Macdonald left Baltimore in 2021 to move to the college level and become Michigan's defensive coordinator. But he was only there for a season but returned to the Ravens to be their defensive coordinator in 2022 and 2023. 


Macdonald had the Raven's defense Top five in multiple categories in both seasons as the defense coordinator. 


This season, Macdonald had the Ravens defense as the best in all of football and was one of the main reasons the Ravens had the best record in the NFL. 


Unfortunately, the Ravens lost to Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC championship game, but Raven's defense only held the best quarterback in football to 17 points and shut him out in the second half. 


This is a good hire for Seattle. They get a young mind that can go up against other coaches in their division, like Sean McVay and Kyle Shanahan. 


Seattle still needs to find their franchise quarterback because Geno Smith isn't it, but if Seattle can discover one and Macdonald can get the defense cooking, the Seahawks could look like 2013 again.
