Why the Tampa Bay Buccaneers were the only team that could get Bruce Arians back to coaching

When the Tampa Bay Buccaneers were looking for a head coach after the 2018 season, Chris Arians knew her husband, Bruce, was talking to general manager Jason Licht.

She wasn't excited. She also wasn't surprised.

"I was certainly resigned to it," Chris told ESPN. "We'll be married 50 years in June, like, I do know the man."

Bruce took the 2018 season off following five seasons as the head coach of the Arizona Cardinals. If he was going to return to coaching, Chris would have some say in it.
