The Buccaneers have parted ways with offensive coordinator Byron Leftwich, the team announced Thursday. The news was first reported by Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times.
The move comes in the wake of Tampa Bay’s 8–9 regular-season record and the team’s wild-card loss to the Cowboys. The team also fired specialists coach Chris Boniol, wide receivers Coach Kevin Garver, offensive quality control coach Jeff Kastl, assistant defensive line coach Lori Locust and running backs coach Todd McNair.
Quarterbacks coach Clyde Christensen, senior offensive assistant Rick Christophel and outside linebackers coach Bob Sanders are retiring, per the release.
