When Liam Coen guided the Bucs' offense to a stellar top-four finish in total yards (6,793), passing yards (4,505), and rushing yards (2,536), Tampa Bay was eager to lock him in with a fat new deal for his offensive coordinator role.

Liam Coen is now building a staff around him with the Jacksonville Jaguars, but the Bucs are ensuring he does not cripple them any further.

There is some bad blood over coach Liam Coen’s departure from Tampa Bay. The Buccaneers have blocked multiple assistants from interviewing with the Jaguars for jobs, according to multiple reports. ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reported that the Jaguars attempted to interview Tampa Bay offensive line coach Kevin Carberry for a similar role in Jacksonville but were blocked.
