Retired Bucs head coach Bruce Arians is getting a slap on the wrist by the NFL over his actions on Sunday.
Over the weekend, Arians was caught on video arguing with Marshon Lattimore on the sidelines moments before the Bucs-Saints brawl.

At one point, it appeared that Arians told Mike Evans to get on the field to protect Tom Brady, who got into a verbal altercation with Lattimore.

Evans eventually shoved Lattimore to the ground, and the NFL announced they were launching an investigation into what happened on Sunday.
According to Pro Football Talk’s Mike Florio, the NFL sent Arians a letter and warned him about his actions on Sunday. Arians assured the NFL that he would comply and not cause any problems in the future.
