Plateauing as a second-tier NFC contender following the 2021 season, the Buccaneers took a step back in an 8-9 2025 showing. The team did not make sweeping changes, retaining GM Jason Licht and HC Todd Bowles — both of whom were extended before the ’25 season — but our Offseason Outlook covered Tampa Bay’s offensive coordinator switch. Zac Robinson, Baker Mayfield’s position coach during the latter’s brief Rams stint, is the team’s fifth play-caller in five seasons. The Bucs said goodbye to franchise cornerstones Mike Evans and Lavonte David this offseason, and while they checked one key cont
