The Seattle Seahawks have officially hired an offensive coordinator and a run game coordinator heading into the 2021 season.
On Friday, Seattle announced Shane Waldron as the team’s new OC and Andy Dickerson as the Run Game Coordinator. Both coaches were last with the Los Angeles Rams.
Waldron spent the previous three seasons as the Rams’ passing game coordinator.
“We are really excited to bring Shane Waldron to the Seahawks,” coach Pete Carroll said via the team website. “His creative and competitive approach to the game will bring out the best in our players and coaches. Shane also brings great knowledge and insight about our division. His vision for the future, along with the caliber of players on our offense, made him a must get for us.”
As for Dickerson, he logged the last nine years as the Rams’ assistant offensive line coach.
“We are fortunate to be able to add Andy Dickerson as our run game coordinator,” Carroll continued. “He has worked with Shane for many years and that continuity will be an integral factor in the transition process.
“They, together with our staff, will work to capture the many strengths we have developed over the years and expand the explosive ability that Russell (Wilson) and crew have afforded us.”
