The Seattle Seahawks recently appointed Klint Kubiak as their new offensive coordinator. Kubiak served in that role with the New Orleans Saints last season. It appears head coach Mike Macdonald is granting him autonomy to fill out some of his coaching staff.
The Seahawks requested permission to interview current Saints quarterbacks coach Andrew Janocko. The Saints have granted that permission, according to ESPN Saints reporter Katherine Terrell.

Indications are that Janocko would be making a lateral move to become the Seahawks’ quarterbacks coach. Though he remains under contract in New Orleans, the Saints are allowing position coaches to interview for lateral gigs elsewhere because they’ve yet to hire a new head coach. There’s a decent chance Janocko would be released from his contract when a coach is appointed in NOLA.
The Seahawks’ current QB coach is Charles London. This would indicate Macdonald may be willing to sever ties. It’s worth noting London possesses close ties to Mike Vrabel, who recently became the head coach of the New England Patriots. Perhaps Vrabel is interested in bringing him to Foxborough.
Kubiak and Janocko have an incredibly familiar relationship. Outside of obviously serving on the 2024 Saints staff together, they previously spent three shared campaigns (2019-21) with the Minnesota Vikings. Kubiak is clearly interested in reuniting with Janocko for a third time.
