TAMPA – There’s an outside chance that either Ike Hilliard or Keenan McCardell will be returning to the Bucs in 2010. Not as players, but as coaches.
Though both of the former wideouts look like they could still play, Hilliard and McCardell have each traded in their cleats for coach’s shoes. With the Bucs in the market for a new receivers coach there’s a chance one of the two will land a job in Tampa Bay.
Hilliard’s agent, Jonathan Feinsod was seen talking to Mark Dominik several times during an East-West Shrine Bowl practice on Monday and McCardell planned to talk with the Bucs GM about the opening as well.
McCardell is currently working with head coach Marty Schottenheimer as the receivers coach for the Shrine game’s West squad. Hilliard spent last season working as a receivers coach for the UFL’s Florida Tuskers.
The Bucs are expected to have a new receivers coach in 2010 as former wideouts coach Richard Mann has been given the freedom to look elsewhere for a job.
The Bucs are in the process of tweaking their coaching staff and hope to announce whatever changes may be made sometime next week.
