Bruce Arians is eager to make an NFL coaching comeback after overcoming health issues that prompted his 2022 retirement.
"Now that I'm all healthy again, I got the itch again. So we'll see," Arians said on The Schultz Report podcast.
Arians dealt with several health challenges during his last season as head coach, including an Achilles tear. Earlier this year, he underwent open-heart surgery.
However, Arians said the start of the 2026 NFL season "lit a fire" in him, though he hasn't spoken to any teams about potential sideline roles.
The 74-year-old's most recent head coaching gig was with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, amassing a 31-18 record and winning Super Bowl LV over three seasons with the team. Arians also won two championships as an assistant and offensive coordinator with the Pittsburgh Steelers from 2004 to 2011.
Before joining Tampa Bay, Arians held head coaching roles with the Indianapolis Colts and Arizona Cardinals. The two-time AP NFL Coach of the Year holds a career record of 80-48-1.
