Pete Carroll is no longer the head coach of the Seahawks and NFL fans paid tribute to a legend

After spending more than a decade as head coach of the Seattle Seahawks, head coach Pete Carroll will no longer have that job next season.

According to a statement from Seahawks chair Jody Allen, the Super Bowl XLVIII champion will remain with the organization as an advisor to the team. Carroll had a 137-89 record (.606) during his time as a head coach in the NFL.

Carroll, 72, has had an incredibly accomplished career on the sidelines of a football field and it makes sense that he would want to take the next steps of his career.

But fans were stunned by the sudden news of his departure as head coach in Seattle.
