Seahawks assistant Clint Hurtt is one step closer to becoming a head coach now that Seattle has promoted him to defensive coordinator. Hurtt spoke to the media on Wednesday for the first time since earning his position.
He wasted no time in outlining the plan for the Seahawks’ defense going forward.
“One thing that is going to be significantly different this year, we are going to be aggressive,” Hurtt said. “We want that. The aggressiveness is going to have to come from our guys up front getting after the passer, continuing on being strong in the run game like we have been in last few years. That’s the mentality of a defense that we want to have, and our players respond to that mentality.”
