Seahawks interviewed former Buccaneers offensive coordinator Byron Leftwich for their vacant position after he spoke with the Patriots

Ryan Clark, former Super Bowl champion and ESPN analyst, criticizes the New England Patriots for their handling of the Rooney Rule during their recent head-coaching search, reigniting debates about NFL diversity efforts.

Super Bowl champion Ryan Clark blasted the New England Patriots on "Inside the NFL" for how they complied with the NFL's Rooney Rule when they hired Mike Vrabel.

Jonathan Jones of CBS Sports reports that the Seattle Seahawks recently interviewed former Buccaneers OC Byron Leftwich for their vacant offensive coordinator position.

The Rooney Rule is an NFL policy that requires teams to interview ethnic-minority candidates for head coaching and senior football operation jobs. The rule was created to help coaches who are minorities but ESPN’s Ryan Clark isn’t convinced it’s effective.

Minnesota Vikings assistant Grant Udinski has reportedly advanced to the second round of the Seattle Seahawks' offensive coordinator search.

The Patriots are speaking with someone who has a strong connection to their most famous quarterback about their head coaching vacancy.

On Tuesday, the New England Patriots interviewed Chicago Bears interim coach and offensive coordinator Thomas Brown for their opening at OC under new head coach Mike Vrabel, per NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport. The Patriots hired Vrabel to be their next head coach on Jan. 12.

Byron Leftwich, a former NFL quarterback, two-time Super Bowl winner and recently Tom Brady’s offensive coordinator with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, interviewed for the same job with the Seahawks recently. CBS Sports’ Jonathan Jones reported that Friday.

Things are heating up precipitously for the Seattle Seahawks in their search for an offensive coordinator. The team has already held interviews with Thomas Brown, Hank Fraley, and Byron Leftwich. Seat
