Factoid: Jon Gruden

Las Vegas Raiders head coach Jon Gruden resigned on Monday following recent reports detailing the use of racist, homophobic, and misogynistic terms in emails reportedly dating back to 2010. Gruden said… More that he loved the Raiders and did not want to be a distraction to the organization moving forward.

Factoid: Antonio Brown
Antonio Brown will be 31 when training camp starts, but I don’t think that will be an issue. He can still play at a high level, and Jon Gruden has a lengthy history of success with older wide receivers. more »

Trivia: September 10, 2018
Jon Gruden begins his second stint as Oakland’s head coach tonight. In the Super Bowl era, who is the only other man who’s been a head coach of one team, gone to coach another franchise, and then returned for a second run?

Factoid: Marshawn Lynch
Marshawn Lynch turns 32 next month – probably the league’s oldest starting running back in 2018. Matt Forte just retired, and I don’t think anybody will want Frank Gore or Adrian Peterson to be a starter. Does Beast Mode have anything left? more »
