The Tampa Bay Buccaneers missed the playoffs for the first time since 2019 this season. Even after winning their final game of the season, they fell short in the NFC South race. Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles is safe, but he fired offensive coordinator Josh Grizzard on Thursday after one season at the helm.

“The Bucs fired offensive coordinator Josh Grizzard, sources tell The Insiders. Todd Bowles says he will be back for a fifth season, with his fifth different OC,” NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero reported.
Dave Canales and Liam Coen were Grizzard’s predecessors as the Buccaneers’ offensive coordinator. While both of those men are now head coaches in the playoffs, Grizzard did not have the same success with Baker Mayfield and the Bucs. According to Mike Garafolo, Tampa already has a list going of potential replacements.
“Two names to watch for Todd Bowles’ fifth OC in five years: Rams pass game coordinator Nate Scheelhaase, who impressed in his interview with Tampa last year, and Ravens OC Todd Monken, a former Buccaneers OC.”
