If former Indianapolis Colts coach Tony Dungy accepted the Seahawks’ offer to become their new president of football operations he would have hired Frazier according to Charley Casserly of CBS.
When Dungy declined the offer on Sunday Frazier’s chances went out the window and the Pete Carroll era began.
