Joe is simply throwing out the hypothetical.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Arians is a fiercely loyal guy and it\u2019s well known, per Arians, that he hates Zoom calls and believes he needs to look someone in the eye when an important subject is on the table.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>UPDATED: 2:02 p.m.<\/strong> \u2014 Arians was a call-in guest late in McAfee\u2019s show, not in-studio.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">He wasn\u2019t asked directly if Bowles will return, but Arians talkes about Bowles fixing things in 2026.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">\u201cTodd\u2019s going to right the ship and Jason Licht\u2019s going to get another great draft,\u201d Arians said. \u201cThey\u2019re going to reload; they don\u2019t have to rebuild.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Bruce Arians Is Not In-Studio With The Pat McAfee Show Today; Where Is He?
