The Seattle Seahawks are slated to look a lot different in 2024 than they did in 2023.

One of their most significant changes is at head coach, as Pete Carroll has moved on from the organization.

Carroll and Bill Belichick were two of the biggest coaching dominoes to fall in the offseason, so it will be interesting to watch how both franchises (the Seahawks and the New England Patriots), bounce back.

In addition to having a new head coach, the Seahawks have also added a few new faces to their roster.

One of their latest additions is Kairee Robinson, as reporter Corbin Smith noted on Twitter.

Robinson went undrafted in April, but the former San Jose State product will have an opportunity to make this roster.

Thankfully for Robinson, the Seahawks are notorious for operating their running back room as a committee.

While some teams tend to utilize one primary back and a change-of-pace back, the Seahawks, at least in recent years, have relied on three or four players to fulfill this role.

If Robinson makes the team, he could see some legitimate minutes during the regular season, which could help jumpstart his career.

The Seahawks haven’t won a Super Bowl for a few years, but due to what Carroll helped create, this is viewed as one of the most fundamentally sound teams in the league.

Robinson will be given top-notch instruction and coaching in his early days with the team, giving him many opportunities to prove himself.
