Aug. 11—BEMIDJI — There are few reasons to watch the upcoming Tampa Bay Buccaneers and New York Jets play in their first preseason game this Friday on Aug. 14. But for Bemidji State football fans, they'll be tuning in to get a glimpse of a familiar face on the sidelines.
After being a part of the
Tampa Bay Buccaneers National Coaching Academy
for rookie mini camp in May, Bemidji State co-defensive coordinator and special teams coordinator Shevin Smith Jr. was asked to come back as a 2026 training camp fellow. He's been working with the Buccaneers' special teams units at training camp before traveling with the team for its first preseason game against the Jets on Friday.
The Bucs chose five out of the 25 coaches who took part in the coaching academy to become a training camp fellow. Smith was honored to be one of the five asked to come back.
