Over the weekend, former Cardinals and Buccaneers coach Bruce Arians disclosed that he's due to have open heart surgery on Friday, February 6.

On Tuesday, Arians posted an update on Twitter.

"Recently on The Today Show, I mentioned I would be having open heart surgery and I just wanted to clarify and let everyone know the procedure I am having is a common one and is something my doctors and I have been monitoring for a number of years and they recommend I correct the issue now so l can be as good as new back on the golf course ASAP," Arians said on Twitter. "I want to thank everyone for all the prayers and well-wishes."

Arians has overcome several health challenges over the years. He seems to be ready to take this one in stride, and he's anxious to get back to working on his swing.
