Randle El joined Arians’ staff in Tampa Bay in 2019 and played wide receiver in Pittsburgh from 2002-05 and in 2010 for head coach Bruce Arians when he was the Steelers offensive coordinator and wide receivers coach. Randle El worked with Bucs wide receivers coach Kevin Garver over the past two seasons.
