Seahawks hiring former UW Huskies OC Ryan Grubb, per reports
A month-long vacation to Alabama for former UW Huskies offensive coordinator Ryan Grubb is apparently over, with ESPN’s Adam Schefter reporting Friday night that he is returning to Seattle to be the new Seahawks OC.
Grubb, 47, left Washington for Alabama along with head coach Kalen DeBoer in January, appearing to take the Bama OC job after posting on social media that he would not be the Huskies’ head coach even though “he wanted to be.”
It was reported last week that the Seahawks were interested in Grubb for their open OC spot following the hiring of new head coach Mike Macdonald, who came to Seattle on Jan. 31 after two seasons as Baltimore Ravens defensive coordinator.
Grubb briefly dispelled rumors of going to the Seahawks this week during a National Signing Day speaking event, announcing himself as Alabama’s offensive coordinator. But on Friday night, pictures began appearing on social media of Grubb at a Renton bar with Macdonald and Seahawks general manager John Schneider. Soon came the reports from NFL insiders that Grubb is the latest addition to Macdonald’s staff.
