Titans News: Ex-Titans ST coordinator Craig Aukerman interviews for Bucs job

Former Tennessee Titans special teams coordinator Craig Aukerman is drawing interest from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers for the same role. According to Scott Smith of Buccaneers.com, Aukerman interviewed for the Buccaneers’ vacancy, along with former New York Giants special teams coach, Thomas McGaughey, who is also a candidate for the Titans’ job. As far as we can tell, the Bucs are the first team to show interest in Aukerman since he was fired in December. Aukerman was hired in 2017 as an assistant special teams coordinator and survived a head-coaching change before he was promoted to the head special teams role in 2018, a job he held until late in the 2023 campaign. During his time in Nashville, Tennessee’s special teams were routinely lackluster, at best. The final straw for Aukerman was when the Titans had back-to-back punts blocked in Week 13, with the second leading to a season-ending injury for star punter, Ryan Stonehouse.
