Ian Rapoport mentioned earlier in the day that there are “remote” questions about whether Carroll will return as the Seahawks head coach in 2018. According to Rapoport, Carroll has privately mused about retirement and a source close him said Carroll’s focus is only on the upcoming game and not the future.
As for the Seahawks, they believe Carroll will return for the rebuild, but Rapoport said that this situation was still worth watching.
Carroll, 66, was hired as the Seahawks’ head coach back in 2010. Since taking the job, Carroll has led the team to a record of 79-47 (62.6 percent) to go along with six playoff appearances, two trips to Super Bowls and a Championship in 2013.
