Buccaneers defensive coordinator Todd Bowles on Washington’s shortlist

The news that broke this morning in the NFL world was the firing of head coach Jay Gruden by Washington after an 0-5 start. Reportedly, Washington already has a shortlist put together, and on this list is current defensive coordinator of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers Todd Bowles.

Bowles was previously a head coach before 2019 for the New York Jets before losing a power struggle with now former general manager Mike Macaggnan. He was the head coach for the gang green from 2015 until last season before being fired; Bruce Arians was quick to leap on his former defensive coordinator with the Arizona Cardinals and bring him to Tampa.
