TAMPA, Fla. — The Buccaneers are hiring former Atlanta Falcons offensive coordinator Zac Robinson to head up their offense.
Robinson is set to be announced as Tampa Bay’s newest offensive coordinator on Tuesday.
For Tampa Bay, Robinson marks the fifth OC in as many years. This comes after Dave Canales (2023) and Liam Coen (2024) took head coaching jobs and last season’s coordinator Josh Grizzard was not brought back after offensive struggles partly led to a 2-7 finish for the Bucs.
The Bucs failed to reach the postseason for the first time since 2019.
Before spending a year on Raheem Morris’ Atlanta staff, Robinson, 39, spent five seasons with the Los Angeles Rams. Under coach Sean McVay, Robinson worked as an assistant with quarterbacks and wide receivers before spending the 2022-23 seasons as the Rams’ passing coordinator and quarterbacks coach.
Current Bucs quarterback Baker Mayfield worked with Robinson in 2022 when he started four games for the Rams.
Tampa Bay interviewed multiple candidates for the position, including ex-Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel, who opted for the OC position with the Los Angeles Chargers.
