The Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who recently hired Dirk Koetter to fill their open offensive coordinator position, on Friday dismissed quarterbacks coach Marcus Arroyo, the Tampa Times reported.

Arroyo, 34, was brought on as quarterbacks coach under offensive coordinator Jeff Tedford last year when coach Lovie Smith took over. But Arroyo ended up serving as the OC after Tedford took a medical leave of absence — and then resigned — following a heart procedure.

Smith added Koetter, the Atlanta Falcons’ former offensive coordinator, on Jan. 8.
