THE Seattle Seahawks could see further changes to its coaching staff. They are already looking for a new offensive coordinator after firing Ryan Grubb and lost another assistant coach in Zak Hill who joined the Boise State Broncos as offensive coordinator. Now it appears they could potentially lose a much higher ranking coach than Hill or Grubb.
On Wednesday, it was announced that the Dallas Cowboys had requested an interview with Seahawks assistant head coach Leslie Frazier, and it appears they will get one next week.
The Cowboys have an interview with former Jets coach Robert Saleh scheduled for later this week, a source said.
The team has requested to speak with Seattle assistant head coach Leslie Frazier, according to multiple sources. Frazier was the head coach of Minnesota, as well as a longtime DC.

Frazier joined Seattle’s coaching staff shortly after the team hired Mike Macdonald as their best man. Frazier was hired as an assistant head coach, a position he held with the Buffalo Bills – alongside his defensive coordinator duties – from 2020 to 2022. He also served as an assistant head coach for the Indianapolis Colts in 2006 , where he was part of their Super Bowl XLI winning team.
As a veteran coach in this league, Frazier has played for eight different franchises as a defensive coordinator, assistant head coach, secondary coach or any combination of the three. To date, his only time as a head coach was with the Minnesota Vikings, where he was elevated to interim head coach in 2010 and eventually became the permanent replacement from 2011 to 2013 During his time in Minnesota, he accumulated a record of 21-33-1, which included a loss in the Wild Card round.
Dallas is looking for a new head coach after failing to reach a new contract with Mike McCarthy.
Selfishly, I hope he stays with the Seahawks to help provide veteran leadership to a young and still relatively inexperienced coaching staff. However, given his history and his own experience in this league, it’s high time he gets a second chance to lead his own team.
