Report: NFL looking at possible involvement of Bruce Arians during Bucs-Saints brawl
Behind a dominant defensive effort, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers downed the New Orleans Saints 20-10 on Sunday. One of, if not the biggest story coming out of the game, however, was the on-field brawl between Bucs star wide receiver Mike Evans and Saints standout cornerback Marshon Lattimore in the fourth quarter.
NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported Monday morning that the league is reviewing the episode to determine whether any suspensions will be handed down.
Furthermore, ProFootballTalk tweeted out that even the likes of former Tampa Bay head coach Bruce Arians -- who now serves in a senior advisory role -- is being looked at for possible discipline.
Arians stepped down as the Bucs head coach last spring, paving the way for Todd Bowles to take over the reins. Tampa Bay won Super Bowl LV under Arians' leadership in February 2021.
The Buccaneers and Saints will square off again in Week 13's edition of "Monday Night Football" on Dec. 5.
