Todd Bowles Hired By Buccaneers
6 years agoThe Tampa Bay Buccaneers hired former New York Jets head coach Todd Bowles as their next defensive coordinator on Tuesday. Head coach Bruce Arians also brought Byron Leftwich to be the pass-game coordinator and Harold Goodwin from his time with the Cardinals. Bowles led a very strong defense in Arizona when he was paired with Arians, and he will be tasked with getting Tampa's unit back in order after they were routinely diced up in 2018, mainly in the secondary. Tampa was 27th in yards allowed per game (383.4), 26th in passing yards allowed per game (259.4), 24th in rushing yards allowed per game (123.9) and 31st in points allowed per game (29.0) in 2018.
