“I have spent most of the last 50 years of my life in the band as a football coach, one way or another,” Arians said. “Today, I have made the decision to move from the bench to another role in the front office of the Buccaneers,” the veteran coach added.
The coach, who ruled out that his decision was due to health reasons, assumed the position with Tampa Bay in 2019 and just in February 2021 he won the franchise’s second championship by winning Super Bowl LV with a roster led by Brady.
