On Tuesday, Tampa Bay assistant general manager Mike Greenberg withdrew his name from consideration for Jacksonville’s GM position.

The first name to come up as a Jaguars GM candidate, Mike Greenberg is out of that mix. Tampa Bay will retain its assistant GM, as Greenberg has informed Jacksonville he is out of the running, the Tampa Bay Times’ Rick Stroud reports.

The Jaguars will need to search through their other GM targets after Bucs' Mike Greenberg reportedly withdraws his name. Two others added to the hunt.

The Jaguars have requested permission to interview Bucs assistant general manager Mike Greenberg for their GM position.

Mike Greenberg, the assistant general manager for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, has reaffirmed his commitment to the team by withdrawing his name from consideration for the general manager position with the Jacksonville Jaguars.

The Bucs have so far rejected Coen’s request to lure contracted assistants to Jacksonville. While many of Coen’s initial inquiries were focused on lateral moves, Greenberg’s GM interview would represent a promotion. This means the Buccaneers wouldn’t be able to stop the executive from joining his former coach in a new spot.
