In January, the Seahawks’ flirtation with Leslie Frazier as a head coach included at one point the possibility of former Bucs and Colts coach Tony Dungy also joining the franchise in an executive capacity.

With Frazier now the head coach of a team for which Dungy once worked as defensive coordinator in the state where Dungy played college football, Dungy becomes an obvious choice to stabilize the front office.

Dungy isn’t interested.

He told the Associated Press that he’s happy working with NBC and that he enjoys having time to watch his son play college football at Oregon.

That’s good for NBC, and bad for the Vikings.
