Jon Gruden Contract: What Raiders Coach’s Resignation Means for Future Salary, Guarantees
“Jon Gruden is no longer the coach of the Raiders. He resigned on Monday night after emails he sent between 2011 and 2018 which contained racist, homophobic and misogynistic language were leaked to the media. Gruden originally made his return to coaching with the Raiders in 2018,” reports Jacob Camenker in Sporting News.
“He returned to the franchise that gave him his first NFL head coaching opportunity to work with Derek Carr, fix the team’s lackluster offense and help navigate an eventual move to Las Vegas. He was paid handsomely to do that too, as the Raiders awarded him with the richest coaching contract in coaching history to leave the Monday Night.”
