Vikings defensive coordinator Leslie Frazier will interview for the vacant Seattle head coaching job with Seahawks’ officials Saturday in Minneapolis, a source with knowledge of the meeting said.

Though Seattle is also pursuing USC coach Pete Carroll to fill to position that became available when Jim Mora was fired, Frazier also has been targeted. Frazier also would allow Seattle to satisfy the Rooney Rule, in which teams have to interview at least one minority candidate for the job.

Frazier interviewed for the Bills’ head-coaching vacancy Thursday and reviews, according to the source, were positive. Frazier has been granted permission from the Vikings to explore opportunities. Minnesota has a bye this week before playing host to a playoff game next weekend.
