According to a report by Bob Condotta and Adam Jude at the Seattle Times, the Seahawks are expected to promote assistant head coach and defensive line coach Clint Hurtt to defensive coordinator. The position has been open since Ken Norton Jr. was fired in January, along with defensive passing game coordinator Andre Curtis.
Hurtt has been with the organization for about five years now after spending three seasons with the Chicago Bears as an outside linebackers/assistant DL coach. Hurtt had also supposedly been in the mix for the Miami defensive coordinator job – where he went to college.
Seattle is also expected to hire Broncos defensive coordinator Ed Donatell in a “senior” defensive role on coach Pete Carroll’s staff.
The Seahawks may not be done making moves for more coaches, either. Additionally, the team hopes to hire Bears defensive coordinator Sean Desai to take over as the defensive passing game coordinator.
