First-year Buccaneers head coach Greg Schiano apparently sided with the players in a sideline spat involving defensive assistant Bryan Cox in Sunday's 41-0 loss to the Saints, a source told PFW.
Cox was seen during the TV broadcast being pushed by LB Adam Hayward in the second quarter, and LB Jacob Cutrera also was involved in restraining Cox, but Sources say that Schiano sided with the players and told Cox that he would not be back on the coaching staff if he repeated his behavior.
Cox was yelling at officials as Hayward pushed the coach back to the sideline. Schiano added Cox to his defensive staff in February.
