NFL: AP Source: Seahawks add Alex Gibbs to staff


By GREGG BELL
AP Sports Writer

RENTON, Wash. � A person familiar with the decision says Houston Texans assistant head coach Alex Gibbs has agreed to join Pete Carroll�s Seahawks staff.
The person spoke Tuesday to The Associated Press on the condition of anonymity because the Seahawks have not finalized the contract.

Adding the 68-year-old Gibbs is a coup for Carroll. Gibbs is known as a guru on the zone run-blocking scheme, which Carroll wants to make the basis for his Seahawks offense.
Gibbs, who joined the Texans in 2008, began coaching in the league with Denver in 1984.
