Peter Clay Carroll was born on September 15, 1951, and he is recognized as the current coach of the and Executive Vice-President of the Seattle Seahawks of the National Football League.

Does Pete Carroll have any Super Bowl ring?
Yes, Carroll has one Super Bowl ring. He swears that’s not how he keeps score, even though he is paid to win football games. It’s all process, he says.
Carroll is one of only three football coaches who have won both a Super Bowl and a college football national championship. He is the oldest head coach currently working in the NFL.
Carroll began his coaching career three years before the founding of the Seahawks franchise as a collegiate assistant at the University of the Pacific in 1973. It took more than a decade for Carroll to then make the jump to the NFL.
Carroll returned to the collegiate ranks, after failed head coaching stints with the New York Jets and New England Patriots in the 1990s.
Carroll’s time with the University of Southern California featured both extreme highs and lows. He brought two national championships to the university but was also a central figure in one of the biggest college football scandals in recent memory.

For the 13 seasons of which Carroll has been with Seattle as a coach, he has reached the postseason 10 and advanced to the divisional round seven times, winning two NFC Championships and one Super Bowl, while claiming the No. 1 seed in the NFC twice, and for the third time in franchise history (2005 under Mike Holmgren, 2013-14).
Seattle led the NFL in scoring defense for four-consecutive seasons from 2012-15, becoming the first defense in the Super Bowl era to accomplish the feat. Cleveland led the league in scoring defense for a record five-straight seasons from 1953-57 in 12-game seasons.
