Former Buccaneers OC Byron Leftwich is still looking to return to coaching in the NFL and has had two interviews so far this offseason. He interviewed for the Patriots head coaching job before they hired Mike Vrabel and has also interviewed for the Seahawks’ offensive coordinator position.
Leftwich was considered a frontrunner for the Jaguars’ head coaching job that eventually went to Doug Pederson in February 2022. Then Leftwich was fired in January 2023 and fell off the grid.

Jonathan Jones of CBS Sports reports that the Seattle Seahawks recently interviewed former Buccaneers OC Byron Leftwich for their vacant offensive coordinator position.

A new regime has arrived in New England. The Patriots are hiring Mike Vrabel to become their newest head coach, sources confirm to the Herald. Vrabel, a Patriots Hall of Famer and ex-Titans head coach, was considered the team’s top candidate as soon as they fired Jerod Mayo an hour after the team’s Week 18 win over the Bills.
Vrabel was the favorite from the start of the Patriots’ search, given his relationship with owner Robert Kraft, his experience, and his coaching style. The Patriots also considered Byron Leftwich, Pep Hamilton, and Ben Johnson, but ultimately landed on the clear front-runner.
