Pete Carroll Steps Down as Seahawks Head Coach

Carroll's Departure Follows a Decade Without a Super Bowl Win, Despite His Desire to Continue Coaching

Pete Carroll, the former head coach of the Seattle Seahawks, has stepped down after 14 seasons, a Super Bowl win, two total Super Bowl appearances, and the most victories in franchise history.
Carroll's departure was marked by a private party attended by several members of Seattle's 2013 Super Bowl team, including Russell Wilson and Richard Sherman.
Despite Carroll's successful tenure, the Seahawks have not been a true Super Bowl contender in nearly a decade, leading to the decision to move in a different direction.
Carroll, known for his upbeat, energetic personality, expressed his desire to continue coaching and may be considered for head coach positions for the 2024 season.
The Seahawks' decision to move on from Carroll is also attributed to the team's lack of sustained postseason success, the decline of the defense, and the offense's lack of consistency.
