Saw it scroll on the bottom line. Here’s a tweet from Schefter.

I'm trying to find confirmation from other sources. Nothing yet.

Looking like this is the end for BA.

Has this been confirmed yet?

Rotoworld citing Schefter.

Cardinals head coach Bruce Arians has retired.

No matter how it is announced, a coach very rarely unilaterally decides to step down, but that seems to be the case here. Despite back-to-back disappointing seasons, the Cardinals would have been happy to see Arians return, but the 65-year-old coach is stepping away after dealing with multiple health issues over the last several seasons including kidney cancer. Arians’ decision could prompt similar ones from Larry Fitzgerald and Carson Palmer, who flirt with retirement after every season at this point in their careers. With the coach out the door, the No. 1 receiver potentially following him, and long-term questions at quarterback even if Palmer decides to return, the Cardinals are at a crossroads.

Have fun and enjoy life B.A

Thanks for the memories

PEOPLE!! Get your heads out of your butts! He's been "retired" since last season. I assume it was a compromise with his family that he would only do one more year.

There will be a lot of dominoes that start falling, some we may not like.

The #AZCardinals have a team meeting in 20 minutes, but coach Bruce Arians is telling colleagues goodbye, sources tell me and @TomPelissero. He hasn't announced yet. But it will be emotional.

Wow. I’m pretty sad about this. BA brought us back to relevancy, he made being a cards fan cool. His offense in 15 was a thing of beauty. Remember how it felt when we were on offense and we basically knew we were going to score? That team could do whatever they wanted and it worked. My favorite cardinals regular season probably ever.

 

[unseenaz]

We will never have a coach like BA again, that’s for sure. Thanks BA, it’s been a hell of a ride and so damn fun.

 

[Finito]

That guy was fun to watch man. No coach speak

 

[Metcalf Rules]

From Daren Urban’s twitter
It’s official: Bruce Arians announces his retirement. #AZCardinals are looking for a new coach.

 

[Vacard]

No he doesn't!!

Oops, forgot the godammit!!

This draft is crucial and I don’t trust him with his annual small-school prospects over talent we need

 

[cardncubfan]

Damn. I was wrong. I thought he would come back next year. Sorry to see you go BA.

Congrats BA. You've earned it. And if there's a positive about this, expect Jones and Bettcher to be shown the door. Maybe we can get competent coordinators now.
