The Seahawks have hired Baltimore Ravens defensive coordinator Mike Macdonald as their next head coach, it was announced Wednesday.  Macdonald is receiving a six-year contract, sources told ESPN’s Adam Schefter.  Macdonald, 36, becomes the NFL’s youngest head coach and brings to Seattle a reputation as one of the league’s brightest defensive minds, having led the Ravens to No. 1 in points allowed, sacks and takeaways in 2023, his second season as Baltimore’s coordinator.
