When Bruce Arians announced he would be retiring as head coach of the Buccaneers, people quickly speculated that his decision had to do with Tom Brady.
Well, the decision ultimately did have to do with Brady, but not in a negative way as first assumed.
ESPN NFL reporter Jeff Darlington joined “NFL Live” to discuss the rumors surrounding the quarterback and now retired coach. Darlington quickly addressed the rumor that Brady forced Arians out of Tampa Bay, which the reporter says is ultimately not true.
“What Bruce Arians has done here is something that people around the league, everybody I’ve talked to around the league, is applauding Bruce Arians today for what he has done,” Darlington said.
