#Seahawks are expected to add Sanjay Lal to the coaching staff, and he’ll assist offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer on that side of the ball in some capacity. Schotty and Sanjay worked together in Indy (WR coach, 2017). Sanjay was Dallas’ WR coach the last two years.

Former Dallas Cowboys wide receivers coach Sanjay Lal will be joining the Seattle Seahawks coaching staff for the 2020 season, according to an NFL source and first reported by Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic on Thursday.
Lal had been with the Cowboys the previous two seasons and had worked with current Seahawks offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer in 2017 when they were both employed by the Colts. He has reportedly been assigned to a senior assistant role to work closely with Schottenheimer on the offensive side of the ball.
Lal is also notable for being a former player for the Washington Huskies from 1990 to 1992, winning a national championship with the team in the latter year.
The exact role given to Lal is still unclear, but he will be very closely involved with the offense as an assistant to Schottenheimer, signifying that he will be an integral component of the coaching staff next season.
