Tom Moore Retired
January 8th, 2026
Retired.
Iconic offensive coach Tom Moore said he wants to coach until he dies.
Thankfully, he’s still alive at 87 years old, but he did quit coaching.
A report from Moore biographer Rick Stroud today made the move public. It seems Moore’s wife’s illness has him wanting to be at home full-time.
In November, Bucs head coach Todd Bowles said Moore missed three weeks to be at home and his absence was hurtful.
” … He brings so much knowledge to all the coaches and this organization with all the things he tells us and tries to [instill] in us. He’s such a valuable piece, we can’t do too much without him,” Bowles said of Moore.
Unfortunately, the Bucs kept losing.
Moore, a mentor of Bucco Bruce Arians, arrived in Tampa with the Arians regime as a senior consultant.
