Bucs Fire Jon Gruden After Seven Seasons

Jon Gruden Fired

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers of the NFL have fired head coach Jon Gruden after seven seasons and one Super Bowl victory.  GM Bruce Allen was also relieved of his duties.

“We will be forever grateful to Jon for bringing us the Super Bowl title, and we thank Bruce for his contributions to our franchise,” Buccaneers co-chairman Joel Glazer said in a statement. “However after careful consideration, we feel that this decision is in the best interest of our organization moving forward.”

A source close to Gruden said the coach was “blindsided” by the move, ESPN’s Chris Mortensen reported.

Expect Gruden to land on his feet though.  He has a Super Bowl victory under his belt and the Bucs have made horrible head coach firings in the past.  The most notably being the firing of Tony Dungy who went on to lead the Colts to a Super Bowl victory and consistant deep drives into the playoffs before retiring last week.
