Bucs Get Lucky; Broncos Don’t Hire Morris

Bucs defensive coordinator Raheem Morris appears to be sticking around One Buc Palace for at least another year.

Bucs defensive coordinator Raheem Morris appears to be sticking around One Buc Palace at least another year.

Though the Bucs weren’t in the playoffs this past weekend — or the weekend prior for that matter — it appears the Bucs came out a winner nonetheless.

Adam Schefter of NFL.com is reporting the Broncos hired Patriots offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels as their new head coach. Why should Bucs fans care? Bucs defensive coordinator and Monte Kiffin’s heir apparent Raheem Morris was a finalist for the job.

Now that the issue of possibly losing Morris this offseason has been put to rest, Morris now has his first hire upon him as Bucs linebackers coach Gus Bradley has taken the defensive coordinator position at Seattle. Thankfully, the new hire won’t be Joe Barry.
