Tampa Bay Buccaneers senior offensive assistant Tom Moore retired on Thursday after spending more than half of his life as an NFL coach.
The 87-year-old spent 13 seasons as a college coach with five different schools from 1961 to 1976 in various roles before jumping to the NFL as the Pittsburgh Steelers wide receivers coach in 1977.
“Bucs senior offensive consultant Tom Moore has decided to retire after 62 years of coaching and more than 46 seasons in the NFL. He’s 87,” Tampa Bay Times Buccaneers beat writer Rick Stroud posted on X.
Moore was the Steelers wide receivers coach for six seasons, helping the organization win championships in 1978 and 1979 under Hall of Fame head coach Chuck Noll.
