In 2021, Michigan’s defense helped the Wolverines win the Big Ten Championship as well as earn a trip to the College Football Playoff semifinals.
A year later as the Baltimore Ravens’ defensive coordinator, Macdonald’s defense helped Baltimore clinch the AFC North and earn them a trip to the AFC Championship game.
“He’s going to bring that same fire from Michigan to [the Seahawks],” Morris said.
