Buccaneers Fire OL Coach Pete Mangurian

ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have fired offensive line coach Pete Mangurian.

Mangurian, a 19-year coaching veteran, joined the Buccaneers in 2009 after spending the previous four seasons coaching the New England Patriots tight ends. Prior to his stint with the Patriots, Mangurian had spent much of his career as an assistant on Dan Reeves’ coaching staffs in Denver (1988-92), New York Giants (1993-96), and Atlanta Falcons (1997, 2001-03).

No replacement has been identified, with Schefter tweeting that the Bucs wanted to go in a different direction.
