Might Kyle Trask become the next Tampa Bay offensive coordinator?
The fifth-year veteran is coach material, says Todd Bowles.
Asked to name who on his roster he thinks would be a good future coach, Bowles fired off a short list that included his popular backup quarterback.
“I think Lavonte [David] can coach if he wants to coach because he’s very bright and he has a bright football mind on both sides of the ball,” Bowles told the Pewter Report podcast. “I think Kyle Trask would be a good football coach. Kyle has a very broad mind, both sides of the ball and he understands the game very well from that standpoint. The other guy that’s a very sharp player, Nelson, Anthony Nelson is a very polished guy. He could coach ball if he wants to because he’s a very good technician and he understands what to do and how to relay it all the time. Vita [Vea], if he wanted to really be a coach, he could be a coach. Because he’s played offense in high school and he understands the game very well.”
Joe never looked at Trask as the next Kevin O’Connell or Frank Reich, but perhaps that’s exactly what he is.
Trask certainly has been around a basket full of standout coaches, plus two stud quarterbacks and two high-octane offenses in his first four seasons.
