Todd Bowles informed the players of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers that Bruce Arians would not be staying as coach and would be replaced by him on the offensive coach position
Arians' decision came one week after Tom Brady announced his retirement to join his former team, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers
As you might imagine, this news was shocking to Brady, but he didn't expect it to happen this way
Arians disagreed that there wasn't any disagreement between the Arians and New York Times' Peter King and the Washington Post's Sam Farmer
Brady, 69 years old at the time, stating that he was more comfortable distributing the chances of success to Bowles
Arians said it was fairly simple to make the team handover on safe hands
He deduced this conclusion soon after the injury Brady chose to call the team back for yet another year
He had time to craft a thorough proclamation because he understood Arians's retirement not long after other halves
