ATHENS - Georgia Bulldogs offensive coordinator Todd Monken will interview for the same position at Tampa Bay, according to a report.
ESPN’s Jenna Laine, who covers the Bucs, cited sources to report that Monken would interview with the NFL franchise this coming week. Numerous reports earlier in the month had Monken being coveted by the Bucs and other NFL teams.
“One college coach I'm hearing has garnered NFL OC interest from teams this cycle: Georgia offensive coordinator Todd Monken,” ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler tweeted on January 17. “(Monken) has had a successful run with the national champion Bulldogs and is also former OC of Bucs and Browns.”
Monken travelled with Kirby Smart on Friday to Connecticut to visit 2024 QB commit Ryan Puglisi. College football’s signing day is Wednesday. The Bulldogs have the consensus No. 2 class in the country behind Alabama.
With Todd Monken calling the plays for the Bulldog offense again in 2023, Kirby Smart and his team have +250 odds to win the 2023 national championship next fall according to FanDuel.

Monken earns more than $2 million after a 60% raise following the Bulldogs’ 2021 national title. That raise was a $750,000 raise. The Bulldogs have lost only three times with Monken as offensive coordinator - two of which were against Alabama.
Still, those three losses pale in comparison to Georgia’s two national titles under Monken. Georgia finished the 2022 season going 15-0, and scoring over 40 points in nine games - including averaging 52.3 points in the program’s final three games of the season.
Monken has overseen one of the wildest rides in terms of signal callers in Georgia history. The Bulldogs started three quarterbacks in 2020 and two in 2021 before starting only former walk-on Stetson Bennett in 2022.
