Former NFL wide receiver and punt returner Jacquez Green, who is currently the head coach at Manatee High School, is this week’s Tampa Bay Buccaneers High School Coach of the Week.

Green, who is the Bucs’ Week 2 winner of the award, has gotten his team off to a 3-0 start after Friday night’s 48-17 win over Charlotte.

Manatee elevated Green from offensive coordinator to head coach in 2021. He’s a former 2nd Round NFL draft pick.

Over 15 years, Green had been patiently working his way through the high school coaching ranks, serving as an offensive coordinator at five different schools. He became Manatee’s offensive coordinator before the start of the 2019 season.

Green’s team receives a grant for $2,000 from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers Foundation to help maintain and upgrade his football program.
