Seahawks Reveal 2026 Coaching Staff, Maintain Continuity Under Mike Macdonald

In the midst of the opening week of free agency, the Seattle Seahawks announced their finalized coaching staff for the 2026 season, and coming off a Super Bowl LX victory, one could have expected to see a lot of new faces under coach Mike Macdonald.

Much like the 90-man roster, however, while there were a few noteworthy departures such as former offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak going to the Raiders as their new head coach, Macdonald and the front office did a fantastic job of keeping most of the band together as the franchise defends its Super Bowl title.

As the biggest change on the staff, Brian Fleury will take over in Kubiak’s stead as Seattle’s new offensive coordinator, taking over as a play caller for the first time in his coaching career at any level. To ease that transition, Macdonald managed to maintain most of the offensive staff from last year’s Super Bowl team with only quarterbacks coach Andrew Janocko and senior assistant Rick Dennison following Kubiak to Las Vegas, including offensive line coach John Benton, run game coordinator Justin Outten, pass game coordinator Jake Peetz, receivers coach Frisman Jackson, and tight ends coach Mack Brown.
