Green Bay Packers offensive coordinator Adam Stenavich interviewed for the Seattle Seahawks’ open offensive coordinator job, per Jonathan Jones of CBS Sports.
Seahawks coach Mike Macdonald is looking for a new coordinator and playcaller after firing offensive coordinator Ryan Grubb following the 2024 season. The Seahawks finished 18th in points scored and 14th in total yards and averaged only 5.5 yards per play with 24 turnovers last season.
Stenavich, who has been the offensive coordinator in Green Bay since 2022, doesn’t call plays for the Packers but would get that opportunity in Seattle, creating a promotion and advancement up the coaching ranks for the Packers assistant.
Stenavich arrived in Green Bay as the offensive line coach on Matt LaFleur’s first coaching staff in 2019. He’s since been promoted to run game coordinator and then to offensive coordinator. But LaFleur remains the playcaller.
Previously this offseason, Stenavich interviewed with the Chicago Bears for their head-coaching position — confirming he has aspirations of one day running his own team. Becoming a playcaller — and being successful at the task — would go a long way in accomplishing the goal, but Stenavich likely has to leave Green Bay to get that opportunity.
In Seattle, Stenavich would get a chance to call plays for quarterback Geno Smith and a talented Seahawks offense that includes receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba, who caught 100 passes in 2024.
As Jones notes, there are currently 11 open offensive coordinator jobs around the NFL, so it’s possible Stenavich will depart Green Bay this offseason for a playcaller job.
