Seahawks lose QB coach to Auburn for OC gig

For the Seattle Seahawks and Russell Wilson, some tough news has just come in on Saturday. That's because quarterbacks coach Austin Davis will be leaving the team in the near future.

On Saturday, it was reported that Davis has agreed to a new contract with Auburn to take over as the Tigers' new offensive coordinator. Obviously, this is a bummer for the Seahawks.

SOURCE: Auburn is hiring Seahawks QB coach Austin Davis as the Tigers new offensive coordinator. Expect an an official announcement later this afternoon. The 32-year-old Davis starred at Southern Miss before playing in the NFL. @On3sports first reported the move.

Wilson no doubt isn't happy about that, as he and Davis have developed solid chemistry. They're good friends. Now, though, Davis is headed to the SEC and leaving the NFC West. This is a big get for Auburn and a big loss for Seattle.
