  1. Though he initially expressed interest in doing so, Bucs coach Raheem Morris will not be able to keep his staff of assistant coaches intact for the 2011 season. One of the Bucs long-standing assistants, associate head coach and special teams coordinator Richard Bisaccia, is leaving the Bucs for a similar post with the San Diego Chargers, Bucs spokesman Jonathan Grella said. They immediately named five-year Bucs coaching veteran Dwayne Stukes their new special teams coach. "For the past five years, Coach Stukes has aided in the preparation and the development of our young players,'' Bucs general manager Mark Dominik said in a statement. "He's ready for this opportunity.'' Stukes spent the 2009 and 2010 seasons serving the Bucs as an assistant defensive backs coach. In 2008 he worked under Bisaccia as a special teams quality control coach and was a coach's assistant in 2006 and 2007.
