According to ProFootballTalk’s Mike Florio, Grubb is being considered for the offensive coordinator position under Mike Macdonald, who recently became the head coach of the Seattle Seahawks. This potential move to the NFL would mark Grubb’s first coaching stint in the professional league, having previously coached at Washington, Fresno State, Eastern Michigan, and other schools in the college football landscape.
Grubb’s journey to Alabama began when he followed Kalen DeBoer to the Crimson Tide after DeBoer assumed the role of head coach, succeeding the legendary Nick Saban upon his retirement. Together, Grubb and DeBoer played pivotal roles in Washington’s impressive offensive performance, helping the team reach the College Football Playoff National Championship Game, where they ultimately faced a tough loss against Michigan.
As the situation unfolds, it remains to be seen whether Mike Macdonald will successfully recruit Grubb to his staff in Seattle in the coming weeks. Football fans will be keeping a close eye on this potential coaching shakeup.
