Former Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll, one of the most accomplished leaders in football history, has reportedly expressed interest in the Chicago Bears head coaching job and is eyeing a return to the sidelines next season, according to league sources.
Carroll, who led the Seattle Seahawks to a Super Bowl victory in 2014, has cemented his legacy as one of the most successful coaches in both professional and college football.
He is one of only four coaches to have won both a national championship and a Super Bowl, joining Barry Switzer, Jimmy Johnson, and Jim Harbaugh in this exclusive group.
Carroll potential return to coaching comes after a storied tenure with the Seahawks, where he transformed the team into perennial contenders. Known for his infectious energy, defensive expertise, and ability to connect with players, Carroll could bring a much-needed spark to a struggling Bears franchise.
With a young quarterback in Justin Fields and a roster in need of direction, Carroll’s experience and leadership could provide the foundation for a turnaround. While Carroll’s interest in the Bears job has generated buzz, the decision ultimately rests with Chicago front office. If hired, Carroll return to the NFL would mark another chapter in his remarkable career, showcasing his enduring passion for the game.
