"The Arizona Cardinals have denied the Tampa Bay Buccaneers permission to speak with receivers coach John McNulty about the Bucs' offensive coordinator position, according to the Arizona Republic.

McNulty, who has spent the last three seasons with Arizona, is still under contract and must receive permission from the team regarding any possible moves within the league.

According to the Tucson Citizen, McNulty may appeal the decision.

McNulty worked under new Bucs coach Greg Schiano for five seasons at Rutgers."
