In an offseason where numerous Tampa Bay Buccaneers coaches are leaving the team, one of Tampa Bay’s is 85 years old and has coached for 45 years — and he isn’t going anywhere.
Bucs offensive assistant Tom Moore is staying in Tampa Bay to coach his 46th season in the NFL, per FOX Sports’ Peter Schrager. Moore has been with the Bucs since 2019, but his NFL heritage goes back much farther than that.
Moore first been coaching in 1961 as a graduate assistant at Iowa, but his first NFL job was with the Pittsburgh Steelers as their wide receivers coach in 1977. Moore has coached for a number of teams, but his most notable stint came in with the Indianapolis Colts as offensive coordinator from 1998-2008 where he oversaw the development of Peyton Manning and won Super Bowl XLI. Moore has been a part of four Super Bowl victories, the latest coming with the Bucs in Super Bowl LV.
Moore came to Tampa Bay in 2019 under Bruce Arians, whom he had worked with in Arizona. He has stayed with the team since Arians retired, however, and now he’s set to return for another year to work with the Bucs offense.
