Sources: Buccaneers to hire Dave Canales as offensive coordinator

TAMPA, Fla. -- The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are hiring Seattle Seahawks quarterback coach Dave Canales as their new offensive coordinator, sources told ESPN's Jeremy Fowler on Wednesday.

The move comes one day after he interviewed with the team.

Canales was the 10th candidate to interview with Tampa Bay for the position since the team fired Byron Leftwich after four seasons on Jan. 19.

Canales had been with the Seahawks since 2010, first as their wide receivers coach, followed by quarterbacks coach (2018-19), passing game coordinator (2020-21) and then quarterbacks coach again (2022).
