Potential candidates to replace Todd Bowles and Byron Leftwich

Who might the Bucs have lined up as replacements if they lose their top assistants?

The Buccaneers have gotten themselves all too familiar with Black Monday over the years.

Prior to the hiring of Bruce Arians in 2019, the Bucs cycled through four different regimes after Jon Gruden’s departure in 2009 – Raheem Morris, Greg Schiano, Lovie Smith and Dirk Koetter. Arians bringing stability, both thanks to his own performance and his top-tier staff, en route to multiple playoff appearances and a Super Bowl win has been a breath of fresh air.

While Tampa could very well forge yet another deep playoff run this season, it’s hard to ignore the gathering storm that is the NFL hiring cycle.
