SEATTLE (AP) -Pete Carroll has reportedly agreed to leave Southern California after nine years to return to the NFL and coach the Seattle Seahawks.
ESPN cited multiple league sources Saturday, saying Carroll has reached an agreement with a team that went 5-11 and fired coach Jim Mora on Friday after one season. The Los Angeles Times has reported Carroll also will be team president.
The Seahawks also are speaking with Minnesota defensive coordinator Leslie Frazier. Teams must interview minority candidates for head coaching jobs.
Carroll’s agent, Gary Uberstine, did not return calls and e-mails from The Associated Press. The Seahawks are not commenting.
Carroll coached the New York Jets and New England Patriots and had a 33-31 record.
