The Seattle Seahawks are hiring San Francisco 49ers tight ends coach Brian Fleury as their next offensive coordinator, ESPN and NFL Network reported Sunday.
The Seahawks had to fill a vacancy left when Klint Kubiak departed for the Las Vegas Raiders' head coaching job. In turn, Kubiak hired Seattle quarterbacks coach Andrew Janocko as the Raiders' offensive coordinator, the reports said.
Fleury changes NFC West allegiances after spending the past seven seasons with the 49ers in various roles. He became their tight ends coach in 2022 and added the title of run game coordinator this past season. His tight end room in San Francisco starred seven-time Pro Bowler George Kittle.
Fleury's first NFL job was as a quality control coach for the Buffalo Bills in 2013. He coached linebackers for the Cleveland Browns the next two seasons and worked in analyst roles for the Miami Dolphins 2016-18.
Janocko spent just one season in Seattle on Kubiak's offensive staff. He also worked under Kubiak as quarterbacks coach of the New Orleans Saints in 2024.
Janocko was also quarterbacks coach of the Minnesota Vikings (2021) and Chicago Bears (2022-23). This will be his first time in a coordinator role.
