RENTON, Wash. (AP) — Seattle Seahawks tight end Eric Saubert appreciates a dry sense of humor, so it didn't take long for him to take a liking to Brian Fleury.
Saubert played for San Francisco in 2024, when Fleury was the 49ers' tight ends coach. The two were reunited in February, when the Seahawks hired Fleury as their offensive coordinator.
"I love dry humor, sarcasm. I love that stuff," Saubert said this week at Seahawks training camp. "But, overall, he's a pro in what he does. And I think he's very innovative in his approach. Overall, I just love working with him."
Described by players and coaches as even-keeled and stoic, Fleury has shown an ability to command a room early in his first stint as an NFL coordinator.
"He's obviously very studied, and you would ****** ume that an offensive coordinator would know everyone's roles," Saubert said. "But to be able to articulate it in the moment like he does, like, I'm telling you: I've been on a lot of teams, and not everyone does that, which is pretty cool. Excited for him."
