Todd Bowles has already fired two Buccaneers coaches

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have decided to stick with head coach Todd Bowles for the 2026 season.

However, Bowles wasted no time and is already making a pair of coaching changes. Offensive coordinator Josh Grizzard was fired on Thursday after just one season, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport.

Bowles is also moving on from quarterbacks coach Thad Lewis, per ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler.

“The Bucs also are moving on from quarterbacks coach Thad Lewis, per source. Tampa Bay will let the new offensive coordinator replacing Josh Grizzard pick his QB coach. Lewis was with Baker Mayfield for all three of his seasons in Tampa Bay,” Fowler wrote on X.

Grizzard replaced Liam Coen, who left for the Jacksonville Jaguars job last offseason, and has them in the postseason in his first year as a head coach.

Grizzard was the Buccaneers’ pass game coordinator in 2024 but was promoted to OC after Coen’s departure. Prior to joining Tampa Bay, Grizzard spent seven seasons with the Miami Dolphins in various roles.

The Buccaneers offense ranked 21st in rushing yards and total yards per game, 19th in passing yards and 18th in points per game after being top-5 in all those categories in 2024.

Rapoport did mention a few possible OC candidates for Tampa Bay, including Baltimore Ravens OC Todd Monken.
