The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have fired defensive coordinator Mike Smith, according to multiple reports.
The move comes a day a day after the team lost its third consecutive game, 34-29 to the Atlanta Falcons.
Tampa Bay has allowed an average of 34.6 points per game this season, including 40 in a Week 1 win over the Saints and 48 in a Week 4 defeat to the Bears.
Smith, the former head coach of the Falcons, was in his third season leading the Buccaneers's defense.
