Todd Bowles is preparing the Buccaneers defense for their first playoff game in years. At the same time Bowles is preparing for an interview with the Atlanta Falcons to become their head coach.
Pro Football Talk is reporting (per a league source) Bowles will interview next week for the job. Bowles was the Jets head coach from 2015 through 2018.

If Bowles were to be hired by Atlanta, the Falcons gain two positives. They not only would have a head coach with previous experience that garners much respect around the league, but they would also be raiding a division foes coaching staff. Bowles would likely bring several Buccaneers coaches with him to Atlanta.
The Falcons are also interviewing Kansas City Chiefs offensive coordinator Eric Bienemy, who is widely considered to be one of the hottest coaching candidates.
Bowles is set to interview with the Atlanta Falcons for their vacant head coaching position next week. Right now the team is focused on their playoff tilt against Washington this Saturday night.
