The Seattle Seahawks are actively seeking a new offensive coordinator after Klint Kubiak accepted the head coaching position with the Las Vegas Raiders. In their search, the Seahawks have turned their attention to a divisional rival, with reports indicating they plan to interview Brian Fleury.
Fleury currently serves as the run game coordinator and tight ends coach for the San Francisco 49ers. His NFL journey began in 2013 with the Buffalo Bills as a quality control coach, followed by stints with the Cleveland Browns and Miami Dolphins in various analyst and research roles.
He joined the 49ers in 2019, contributing to their Super Bowl appearances. Fleury transitioned to offense in 2020 and was promoted to tight ends coach in 2022. He added run game coordinator duties in 2025, playing a role in Christian McCaffrey's success.
On the defensive side, secondary coach Karl Scott is expected to remain with the Seahawks. Despite interviewing for defensive coordinator positions with the Arizona Cardinals and Washington Commanders, both teams opted for other candidates. Scott's versatility and development of defensive backs like Devon Witherspoon have drawn significant praise.
