Chad Wheeler of the Seattle Seahawks was being held in King County Jail on Monday night after being arrested on suspicion of felony domestic violence, accused of assaulting his girlfriend at a residence in Kent.

In a statement Monday night, the Seahawks said, “We are aware of the situation and still gathering information.”

A Kent Police Department report said police responded to a call of a woman who was locked in a bathroom following a “physical fight” with her boyfriend.

The victim had called 911 to state that she was being “killed.” Police were advised that she had suffered a dislocated arm and was bleeding.

Officers forced their way in to the bathroom and found the victim and Wheeler. He was standing beside her, the report said.

Wheeler initially was uncooperative before being detained, the report said, and he did not speak to officers.

The report said the incident began when Wheeler asked the victim to bow to him, and when she did not he grabbed her and threw her on a bed.

The report said Wheeler then strangled the victim before she lost consciousness. The report also said when she regained consciousness, Wheeler was standing near the bed and said, “Wow you’re alive?”

The Seattle Seahawks are planning to hire Shane Waldron as offensive coordinator, according to a source.

Waldron is currently the passing game coordinator for the Los Angeles Rams. He has not called plays in any of his seven seasons as an assistant in the NFL.

Russell Wilson didn't want the Seattle Seahawks to move on from Brian Schottenheimer as their offensive coordinator.

Now he wants some say on who they hire to replace him.

"I think it's vital, it's critical, super significant, obviously, that I'm a part of that process," Wilson said. "Coach and I have definitely been talking about that, [general manager John Schneider] too as well. We've had some ... great dialogue about the thought process of who we want, the leader ... the innovator, all that kind of different stuff that you want. I think that's the super critical thing, obviously at this point in my career because you spend every day with that person ... As many hours as me and Schotty spent together, I'm going to miss the guy because we spent so much time together and worked so hard.

"The next person, whoever that is, it's really critical that we're on the same page at all times and always talking and vibing and really, really on the same page."

The Carolina Panthers have agreed to hire Scott Fitterer as general manager.

"We went through a thorough process, and it was a great final four," Panthers owner David Tepper said. "We thought Scott was the best fit for the organization."

He was picked over three other finalists, Kansas City Chiefs assistant director of player personnel Ryan Poles (35), San Francisco 49ers vice president of player personnel Adam Peters (41) and Tennessee Titans vice president of player personnel Monti Ossenfort (42).

The Seattle Seahawks have parted ways with Brian Schottenheimer as offensive coordinator. 

The Seahawks announced the decision Tuesday, citing "philosophical differences" as the reason for the parting, while calling Schottenheimer a "fantastic person and coach."

The Seattle Seahawks and John Schneider have agreed to a contract extension through 2027.

"I am pleased to announce that we have extended the contract of general manager John Schneider through the 2027 draft," said Jody Allen, chair of the Seattle Seahawks. "For the last decade, John and head coach Pete Carroll have formed a tremendous partnership and the Seahawks have established a successful, unique, and truly winning culture respected throughout sports. I know we are all excited to see that continue."

The Seahawks recently signed Pete Carroll to an extension through 2025.

The Detroit Lions were reportedly interested in hiring Schneider to run their franchise. 

With the Seattle Seahawks losing to the Los Angeles Rams on Saturday afternoon, the New York Jets have secured the 23rd overall pick.

The Jets will receive the pick as a result of the Jamal Adams trade before the season.

New York will also pick second overall.

The Detroit Lions plan to pursue John Schneider as general manager. 

Schneider has teamed with head coach Pete Carroll to lead Seattle to two Super Bowls with one win and make the organization a perennial playoff participant.

Schneider doesn't have primary authority over all personnel decisions in Seattle.

Schneider has one season remaining on his contract with the Seahawks.
