TAMPA - The Buccaneers filled four of the openings on their coaching staff on Tuesday when they officially named Nate Kaczor as their new special teams coordinator, Mark Duffner as linebackers coach, Jay Hayes as defensive line coach and Jon Hoke as defensive backs coach.
Kaczor (pronounced KAK-zer) comes to the Bucs after spending the previous three seasons working in the same capacity with the Tennessee Titans.
Duffner, a 40-year coaching veteran with 19 seasons of NFL experience, spent each of the last two years working as a defensive line coach with the Dolphins, but prior to that he spent eight years coaching linebackers for the Jacksonville Jaguars.
