Report: Seahawks interested in Bucs assistant coach Casey Bradley

Posted by Danny O'Neil

Add another coach with Tampa Bay on his resumé to the list of people the Seahawks are talking to.

However, Bucs linebackers coach Casey Bradley's tenure with the Bucs came after Tim Ruskell left the organization.

The Seahawks are expected to talk to Bradley, according to this report from the Tampa Tribune:

The Seattle Seahawks appear to have some interest in possibly making Bucs linebackers coach Casey "Gus" Bradley their new defensive coordinator, a source with knowledge of the Seahawks plan said.
   -- Tampa Tribune, Jan. 5, 2009

That would be quite a climb for Bradley, who has spent the last three years on the Bucs staff. The first came as a defensive quality control coach after he was hired out of North Dakota State. Bradley has coached the Bucs linebackers the past two seasons.

Just what roles the Seahawks would consider Bradley and former Detroit coach Rod Marinelli remain unclear. It's evident, however, Seattle is interested.

John Marshall has officially been the Seahawks defensive coordinator for the past three seasons, but he also spent the 2005 as the acting defensive coordinator after Ray Rhodes suffered a stroke before the regular season began.

The Seahawks allowed the most passing yardage in the league in 2008 as a defense that included four players chosen as Pro Bowl starters in 2007 was one of the biggest disappointments of Seattle's 4-12 season.
