Jag Off... Again...This Time In Tampa


((HT: Tampa Tribune/Richardson))

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers announced this morning they have fired offensive coordinator Jeff Jagodzinski ((pictured, thanks Bob Hansen/Tampa Tribune)) and replaced him with quarterbacks coach Greg Olson.

Bucs coach Raheem Morris will have a news conference at noon to discuss this decision.

Jagodzinski was named offensive coordinator Jan. 29. He came to Tampa Bay after two years (2007-2008) as the head coach at Boston College. Prior to his stint at Boston College, Jagodzinski served as the offensive coordinator for the Green Bay Packers in 2006 and spent the two seasons (2004-2005) prior to that on the staff of the Atlanta Falcons.

Olson joined the Buccaneers as quarterbacks coach in 2008 and was retained when the team promoted Raheem Morris to head coach. Olson previously served as the offensive coordinator for the Detroit Lions in 2005 and the St. Louis Rams from 2006-07. He has also previously served as the quarterbacks coach for the Lions, Chicago Bears and San Francisco 49ers.
