The Seattle Seahawks continue to improve their coaching staff ahead of the new season, adding veteran college coach Jimmie Dougherty — a name widely respected for his work with quarterbacks and the passing game. Dougherty arrives from the University of Washington, where he most recently served as offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach. His success led to a promotion to offensive coordinator from 2007 to 2008, where he continued to lead an efficient and aggressive passing attack. In 2009, Dougherty joined Washington as a wide receivers coach, a role he held through 2012. He returned to UW in 2021 as quarterbacks coach, eventually earning a promotion to offensive coordinator, a position he held during the 2025 season.
