Tampa Bay Promotes Josh Grizzard to Offensive Coordinator Following Liam Coen’s Departure

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have made a significant decision in promoting former pass game coordinator Josh Grizzard to the role of offensive coordinator. This move comes after the departure of Liam Coen, who left to become the head coach of the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Grizzard, who joined the Bucs just last season, played a key role in the team’s success, particularly in the passing game. Under his guidance, the Buccaneers boasted the top-ranked third-down offense in the NFL, converting an impressive 50.9% of their attempts. Additionally, the team excelled in various offensive categories, including scoring, yards per play, completion percentage, and passing touchdowns.

Head coach Todd Bowles expressed his confidence in Grizzard’s abilities, citing his innovation and familiarity with the team as key factors in his promotion. Bowles emphasized the importance of continuity and building upon the success of the previous season.

Before joining the Buccaneers, Grizzard gained experience at both the collegiate and NFL levels, working with notable quarterbacks such as Daniel Jones and Jaylen Waddle. His track record of success and fresh ideas make him a promising addition to an already potent offense.

As the Buccaneers gear up for the 2024 season, all eyes will be on Grizzard as he takes on his new role as offensive coordinator. Fans can expect to see his innovative approach and expertise in play design contribute to the team’s continued success on the field. Stay tuned for more updates on the Buccaneers as they prepare for the upcoming season.
