According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have fired head coach Dirk Koetter.
Koetter spent three seasons in Tampa Bay finishing with a 19-29, record. Koetter never made the playoffs with the Buccaneers. Although, he just missed the postseason in 2016 after he led the Bucs to a 9-7 record.
Since his successful first season in Tampa Bay, Koetter’s team struggled. The Bucs won five games in consecutive seasons and never made the strides many fans expected with a talented roster.
The writing was on the wall for Koetter. He seemed to be prepared for the news as he signed off his weekly radio show.
