We told you last week that former Rams offensive coordinator Greg Olson was likely to be named to the Bucs' quarterbacks coach, and it appears the decision has been made.
The Olson hire is expected to be announced soon, though the Bucs still haven't commented. His hire leaves the Bucs Bucs with just one remaining opening on its coaching staff.
Olson is a good fit for the Bucs because of his history with quarterback Jeff Garcia, who worked with Olson for one season each in San Francisco and Detroit.
Olson had the chance to stay on with the Rams, but he had been informed by coach Scott Linehan that he would remain there in a lesser capacity. Olson told us last week that he wasn't inclined to do that.
