The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have appointed Zac Robinson as their new offensive coordinator for the upcoming 2026 NFL season. Following an 8-9 finish in 2025, the team looks to improve after averaging the lowest yards per play over the past three seasons. Robinson takes over from Josh Grizzard and brings a two-year average of 5.5 yards per play from his time with the Atlanta Falcons. Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield, who struggled with injuries last season, aims for a bounce-back year.
