World Sports · 20:48:39 - Thursday, 5 November 2026

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson is reportedly interviewing for the head coaching position at North Carolina State University, according to a report from KIRO News.

The nine-time Pro Bowl selection and Super Bowl champion has been with the Seahawks since being drafted in 2012. Wilson, 37, has established himself as one of the NFL's premier quarterbacks over his career.

NC State's football program has been searching for a new head coach following the departure of Dave Doeren. The Wolfpack compete in the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC).

Wilson's potential move to college coaching would represent a significant career shift for the veteran NFL quarterback, who has also pursued business ventures and ownership interests in professional sports teams.

The interview comes as Wilson enters the latter stages of his playing career, with his current contract situation in Seattle remaining a topic of speculation around the league.
