Head Coach Mike Macdonald On The Team’s Progress Throughout The Offseason | Seattle Seahawks Macdonald was straightforward and insightful during his minicamp presser, mixing scheme hints with sharp accountability moments. He noted that offensive coordinator Brian is currently in a highly detail-oriented installation phase, describing the current scheme as “this year’s version of last year’s offense” rather than something entirely new. Macdonald heavily emphasized defensive cross-training, insisting that his staff refuses to “farm each other’s land”—meaning everyone coaches everyone, allowing players like Jared Ivy to shift fluidly from the A-gap to the D-gap. He also praised veteran defensive back Julian as the “mayor” of the team for his willingness to move around the secondary, noting the staff is actively scheming ways to get him “closer to the action”.
