With a new season in the store, there are bound to be coaching changes within the franchises. But this is the thing that few could have expected. Jay Harbaugh is all but set to join the Seattle Seahawks. Instead of his father Jim Harbaugh at Los Angeles Chargers.

After winning the College Football Championship last month, the speculations ran wild. It seemed almost every franchise was looking to hire Jim. And his son Jay was an afterthought, and it seems he is ready to step out of his father’s shadow.

Jay Harbaugh goes on his way

Father and son joined Michigan State in 2015. As Jim became the head coach for the Wolverines, son Jay took on many responsibilities. From tight ends coach and running backs coach, Jay also held the title of interim head coach for 3 games at Michigan.

However, the position he is reported to be joining at the Seahawks is of the special teams’ coach. The same position he held for the longest in his 9-year stint with the Wolverines.
