Special teams coordinator Danny Smith is leaving after 13 seasons with the Pittsburgh Steelers for the same role with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, NFL Network reported on Tuesday.
Smith, 72, and the entire coaching staff, though under contract through February, have been permitted by the Steelers to seek employment elsewhere, according to reports. Mike Tomlin stepped down on Jan. 13 after 19 seasons as head coach.
A Pittsburgh native, Smith was hired by the Steelers on Jan. 31, 2013. He previously served as special teams coordinator with Buffalo (2001-03) and Washington (2004-12).
Smith was a special teams coordinator and defensive backs coach with the Philadelphia Eagles (1995-98) and tight ends coach with the Detroit Lions (1999-2000).
