The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have had a disappointing first half of the season, which puts the future of Dirk Koetter as head coach on shaky ground.

Jon Gruden was fired by the Buccaneers after the 2008 season and has since worked for ESPN on Monday Night Football.

Gruden has been linked to several NFL and college jobs in the interim years but he could return to Tampa Bay, according to Michael Lombardi.

"As for Tampa, I think we can officially put Dirk Koetter on the hot seat. They've got all this talent and spent all this money," said Lombardi.

"A lot of people in the NFL are telling me that the name they are hearing is Gruden back to the Bucs job-that he has made up with the Glazers and that the Glazers could easily bring him back."
