Peter Clay Carroll (born September 15, 1951) is an American football coach. He served as a head coach in the National Football League (NFL) for 19 seasons, primarily with the Seattle Seahawks, and as the head coach of the USC Trojans for nine seasons. Carroll is the third head coach to win both a college football national championship and a Super Bowl, achieving the former with the Trojans and the latter with the Seahawks. Beginning his coaching career on the NFL level, Carroll saw minimal success as head coach of the New York Jets in 1994 and the New England Patriots from 1997 to 1999. Shifting to college football with USC, he revitalized the struggling program into a top-ranked contender from 2001 to 2009, winning seven consecutive conference championships and an AP national championship. He also won a BCS national championship at the 2005 Orange Bowl, although the title was later vacated. Carroll's college success prompted a return to the NFL in 2010 when he was hired as the head coach of the Seahawks. During his 14 seasons, he led the team to 10 playoff appearances, five division titles, two consecutive Super Bowls, and the franchise's first championship in Super Bowl XLVIII. The team's Legion of Boom defense also led the league in scoring defense for four consecutive seasons under Carroll. Following the 2023 season, Carroll stepped down as head coach to take an advisory position with the Seahawks. He left Seattle in 2025 to become head coach of the Las Vegas Raiders, where he spent one season.
