Some members of the NFL group have been shocked to learn in late June that the Tampa Bay Buccaneers had signed head coach Todd Bowles and common supervisor Jason Licht to multiyear contract extensions.
Throughout a current chat with Ira Kaufman of the JoeBucsFan web site, Bowles mentioned receiving such a robust vote of confidence from workforce possession.
“They don’t provide you with expectations,” Bowles stated concerning the Glazer family. “They’ve been very supportive, greater than anything, somewhat than, ‘We count on this or we count on that.’ They by no means say that. They all the time are very supportive of what we do and perceive and see the large image. And we attempt to talk, me and Jason, and we’re very trustworthy so far as us speaking to them. And we have now a very good relationship.”
Bowles is considerably of a polarizing determine among the many Tampa Bay fan base. Whereas he guided the workforce to division titles throughout every of his first three campaigns in cost, he has to date collected an unspectacular regular-season document of 27-24 with the group. He most lately fell to 1-3 in postseason play as Tampa Bay head coach by way of this previous January’s 23-20 wild-card loss to the Washington Commanders.
Nonetheless, there isn’t any indication Buccaneers possession ever thought of getting in a special route earlier than Bowles and Licht inked their new offers.
“It’s year-to-year,” Bowles stated about being in his position. “I don’t care if you happen to win a Tremendous Bowl. The following yr, you bought to show your self over once more. And we bought to show ourselves over once more, however we bought to be loads higher ending out ballgames.”
ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler and Adam Schefter reported on June 26 that Bowles’ contract now runs by the 2028 season. Through the JoeBucsFan interview, Bowles revealed that he had two years remaining on his earlier settlement.
“They’ve been nice,” Bowles added concerning the Glazers. “I imply, they tore up me and Jason’s contract, and we had two years left. So, that was nice on their half and [I’m] very appreciative for me and Jason.”
As of Tuesday afternoon, DraftKings Sportsbook had the Buccaneers and Minnesota Vikings tied for seventh among the many betting favorites at +1300 odds to symbolize the NFC in Tremendous Bowl LX. Even when Bowles’ Bucs fall in need of taking part in within the convention championship conflict held in January 2026, it appears he now has nothing to fret about concerning his standing with the membership.
