Kubiak's teammates sang his praises after the victory.
“He was very important; he always wanted to get better. He put the ball in playmakers' hands; he made a great impact on our offense, and he brought us all the way here," MVP Kenneth Walker III said.
“I’m really happy for Klint," Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald said. "Without him, we wouldn’t be here, being bought in on what we wanted to create, bringing that to the offense every day, just so steadfast in his approach. He’s team-first, and that’s what I appreciate about him. He’s a brilliant mind; he’s a great coach.”
Kubiak touched down in Las Vegas with his family on Monday. His introductory press conference is set for Tuesday at 11 a.m. PT.
