Seahawks Hire Dougherty, Eyeing Huskies Star

0:00On March 28th, Seahawks are stacking their coaching staff this off-season with a sharp higher from the Washington Huskies. They brought in Jimmy Dowerty as an offensive assistant, the guy who just served as offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach up in Seattle. It's a low-key move pulling talent from college ball to boost their offense after losing some key pieces. Dordy spent the last two seasons with the Huskies, turning their passing game solid at 30 second in the nation back in 2024. Then in 2025, he balanced things out with a rushing attack that ranked 17th in points per game at 34.1. Before that, from 2021 to 2023 at Arizona, he ran passing offenses that hit 8th and 6th nationally. Fans and analysts see this as a high reward grab for an underrated coach who's built a strong resume on the West Coast. Despite media buzz on departures like their offensive coordinator and running back, these additions show Seahawks quietly rebuilding smart. Dordy's experience could steady the ship for their young quarterbacks.

They might eye Huskies standouts like running back Jonah Coleman, who's thrived under dockerity for four years. Coleman powered up 3,054 rushing yards and 34 touchdowns in college plus solid receiving numbers. This hire opens doors for seamless transitions if they snack Coleman in the second or third round, positioning him as a top back contender.
