Coaching career

In 2002, Carroll joined the USC Trojans staff as a graduate assistant under his father, head coach Pete Carroll. During his first season, he worked with offense and special teams, and switched to tight ends the next year. In 2004, he became the full-time assistant coach in charge of tight ends. In 2007, in addition to his work as an assistant coach, he became the recruiting coordinator.[1] Also in 2007, Trojans tight end Fred Davis, who Brennan coached, won the John Mackey Award, which goes to the nation's top tight end.

On December 22, 2010, Carroll joined Al Golden's staff at the University of Miami as the tight ends coach and recruiting coordinator.[2] On January 10, 2013, Carroll moved to wide receivers coach, while retaining the recruiting coordinator title, after the Hurricanes hired Mario Cristobal as associate head coach and tight ends coach.[3]

After thirteen years in the collegiate ranks, Carroll joined his first NFL staff on February 9, 2015, reuniting with his father Pete, then the head coach of the Seattle Seahawks. Carroll was hired as the assistant offensive line coach, and was promoted to run game coordinator prior to the 2020 season.

On January 1, 2021, Carroll joined the University of Arizona staff under new head coach Jedd Fisch as offensive coordinator and offensive line coach; they had worked together at Miami. In 2023, Arizona improved to 10–3, concluding with a 38–24 win over Oklahoma in the Alamo Bowl; the Wildcats finished eleventh in both major polls.

Carroll was one of several coaches to follow Fisch to the University of Washington in 2024, where he was the offensive coordinator and offensive line coach.

On February 3, 2025, Carroll was hired by the Las Vegas Raiders to coach the team's offensive line.[4]
