Some coaches say their job is "a calling." Rocky Seto looks at things through a different lens.

Proof?

Seto, 42, had worked on head coach Pete Carroll's staffs since 2001, Carroll's first season at USC.

Seto's role the past two seasons was to help defensive coordinator Kris Richard with devising weekly game plans. Seto was promoted into that position after coordinator Dan Quinn left to become the head coach of the Falcons.

Working primarily with the defensive backs since coming to Seattle with Carroll in 2010, Seto received "significant credit" for helping groom the Seahawks' "Legion of Boom" secondary, the Times noted.

An unidentified source told the Times that the decision to leave was Seto’s and he has long had a desire to enter the ministry.
