Angelo began his career in the NFL as a scout for the New York Giants in the early 1980's. Four years later he moved on to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, a team that had experienced brief success. An expansion team in the mid 1970's the Buccaneers lost the NFC championship game in 1979 to the Philadelphia Eagles. What followed was a chaotic series of player tragedies and setbacks that sent the team into a slump. A succession of coaches and numerous roster changes failed to revive the team throughout the 1980's. Angelo was associated with the appearance of front office divisions and management mistakes. By the late 1990's his 14 year tenure in Tampa Bay was perceived as unsuccessful. With new ownership of the franchise, Angelo moved on to the Chicago Bears. His tenure in Chicago has been uneven and the same mistakes that occured with the Buccaneers have resurfaced in Chicago.
