Bucs Have A New Special Teams Coach
January 20th, 2026
New Bucs special teams coach Danny Smith.
This hire is right up the alley for those who like cartoon characters for coaches.
The Bucs today, per Jenna Laine of ESPN, have decided on a special teams coach. He comes from the Steelers. Long-time special teams guy Danny Smith, 72.
The animated Smith has been a special teams coach in the NFL for some 30 years, the last dozen seasons in Pittsburgh.
Joe is going to assume if he was lousy, Mike Tomlin would have launched him a long time ago.
Now, how will the excitable Smith’s demeanor improve the horrible Bucs special teams? Joe has no earthly idea.
