The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have seen a number of staff changes this offseason due to Dave Canales’ presence in Carolina, but they experienced another one on Wednesday that has nothing to do with that.
Bucs special teams coordinator Keith Armstrong, who has been with the team since 2019, is retiring, per NFL reporter Tom Pelissero. The spot is yet another to fill in a staff that has seen some considerable change since the team lost to Detroit in the Divisional Round of the NFL playoffs.
Armstrong has been a football coach for some time, beginning his career in 1987 as a graduate assistant at Temple. Armstrong played with Todd Bowles at Temple under head coach Bruce Arians, so the two go way back on multiple fronts. Armstrong has been a special teams coach for almost 30 years, coaching four different teams since 1994.
