The Bucs keep making head coaching changes. Their General Manager has hired three of them in his six seasons.Jason Licht has survived despite only one winning season and no postseason appearances in his tenure Matt Gay Jersey , with a 27-53 overall record.“One thing we do know in the NFL, too much instability doesn’t lead to success,” co-chairman Joel Glazer said, via Pewter Report. “And we have had our share of instability over the last several years. And with Jason — obviously Jason is not happy with what our record has been the last few years — but when you look at our team and you look at our drafts, there have been positives. We have had a lot of players we drafted, re-sign, and we have a good nucleus of players. So at the end of the day, we felt the consistency in that was important and will ultimately lead to success.”Licht has a relationship with new coach Bruce Arians from their time together with the Cardinals, so maybe this hire turns out better than Lovie Smith and Dirk Koetter did.“He has put together a good personnel staff; he is good at articulating to everybody of what we are trying to accomplish,” Glazer said of Licht. “He has good perspective when it comes to the team. And I think the key has been working with the head coach. I think he has had excellent ability to work with our coaching staffs.”Injuries force Bucs to become flexible First, it was the right side of the offensive line that was hit by multiple injuries. Now, it’s the secondary that has the same issue. But injuries be damned, the Bucs are finding ways to fight through the misfortune.Whether it’s playing rookies more often or moving other players around, Dirk Koetter and Mike Smith are doing everything they can to make the best of a bad situation. Brent Grimes was the first Buc down and then a practice-field injury led to the waiver of David Rivers. After Vernon Hargreaves III hurt his groin during the Bucs’ first preseason game, fellow defensive back Javien Elliot followed soon after. At one point, the Bucs had just six corners available and five of them were rookies.Grimes returned to practice on Monday Matt Gay Tampa Bay Buccaneers Jersey , but the Bucs are still very thin at the position. This has led Tampa Bay to experiment with different strategies - such as Justin Evans in the starting slot role and rookie Jordan Whitehead starting at safety. If there’s a silver lining, it’s the fact these injuries are happening now as opposed to the middle of the season. At least the Bucs get a chance to see what they have early on and canmake their assessments based off more than the average amount of reps these players would usually see during the preseason. “Well you got to have flexibility, so I look at those DBs similar to how you look at the wideouts. I mean, Chris Godwin can play four wideout spots. Mike [Evans] can play four wideout spots,” Koetter said after practice Tuesday. “We’re getting stressed at our depth at corner right now and nickel, so Justin Evans is becoming one of those guys that has to be able to move around. M.J. Stewart is in that same spot. When you get hit with injuries at one position, we don’t cancel practice. We’ve got to figure something out, so in the long run it builds your depth.”According to Koetter, none of the injuries are too serious at the moment. “The good news is none of them are long term. We’ve yet to have anybody that’s a threat to miss when we go to New Orleans for the opener. We’d love to have everybody out here, but that’s just part of it.”While the situation has to yet to reach dire levels, this is not what the organization wants to see. Like the offensive line, the secondary was supposed to be a revamped group, but has now been setback a bit. Injuries are part of the NFL though and the Bucs know no one is going to feel sorry for them.As long as it’s all systems go for week one of the regular season, then there is no reason to worry, but the Bucs are becoming awfully flirtatious with injury bug recently and that is not a game you want to play heading into a make-or-break season.
