Seattle Seahawks Mike Macdonald’s successor in his previous job is joining the Super Bowl champions.

The Seahawks hired former Baltimore Ravens defensive coordinator Zachary Orr on Feb. 13 to coach inside linebackers, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter. Orr served as the Ravens’ defense coordinator right after Macdonald held the job from 2022 to 2023 before he took the Seahawks head coaching job in 2024.
