Buccaneers to reportedly retain Dirk Koetter for 2018

Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Dirk Koetter will return to the team for the 2018 season.

What It Means:

Team ownership has told the 58-year-old that he won't be fired despite rumors of Jon Gruden returning to coaching. This is somewhat surprising given the big expectations for a Bucs team that's gone just 4-11 through 15 weeks of play. There's certainly a chance that Koetter makes some changes within his staff over the offseason.

With a -3.53 nERD, Tampa Bay ranks 21st in our power rankings heading into Week 17. Their defense rates as the fifth-worst in the NFL, per our metrics.
