Jason Licht’s right hand man stays in Tampa

Mike Greenberg, the assistant general manager for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, has reaffirmed his commitment to the team by withdrawing his name from consideration for the general manager position with the Jacksonville Jaguars. This decision was widely reported by various outlets.

Greenberg’s withdrawal from the Jaguars’ GM race was attributed to his loyalty towards the Buccaneers, where he has spent 15 seasons. His decision to stay in Tampa was influenced by his relationship with the team’s management, including GM Jason Licht, head coach Todd Bowles, and the Glazer family, rather than any negative perceptions of the Jaguars or their newly appointed head coach Liam Coen, as detailed by Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times on X.

This move is seen as significant for the Buccaneers, especially considering they’ve already lost Coen to the Jaguars and another assistant GM, John Spytek, to the Las Vegas Raiders. Greenberg’s role in the Buccaneers organization includes being the chief contract negotiator and strategist, making his decision to stay a major relied for the organization.
