Former Oakland/Las Vegas Raiders and Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Jon Gruden is getting back in front of the camera.
Jon Gruden has mostly kept a low profile since resigning from the Raiders during the 2021 season following his email scandal. Gruden who spent nine seasons in ESPN’s “Monday Night Football” booth from 2009 to 2017, recently announced that he’ll give the NFL analyst career another go.
“Chucky” has launched a new YouTube channel called “Gruden Loves Football,” where he analyzes games and provide insight on important “lessons” in the game:
“Gruden Loves Football is dedicated to educating and inspiring football fans across generations, rekindling the passion for the game, and highlighting the invaluable life lessons it imparts.
Jon Gruden is a Super Bowl Champion Head Coach with 122 Wins during his tenure with the Oakland/Las Vegas Raiders & Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Coach Gruden also was the lead Color Analyst for Monday Night Football from 2009 to 2017.”
Jon Gruden posted his first video on Monday morning, analyzing and predicting Thursday’s Baltimore Ravens-Kansas City Chiefs NFL Kickoff Game. Gruden is going with the defending champions to win:
Gruden has launched a website and social media pages for “Gruden Loves Football” on Facebook, X/ Twitter, Instagram, TikTok and LinkedIn. The channel has partnered with the BetOnline sportsbook.
The 61-year-old Jon Gruden coached the Raiders from 1998 to 2001 before leaving for the Buccaneers in 2002. Gruden coached the Bucs to a Super Bowl 37 victory, fittingly over his old Raiders’ squad in the big game.
Gruden was fired by the Buccaneers after the 2008 season and made the move to the ESPN broadcast booth. After nine years there, Raiders owner Mark Davis brought him back on a 10-year deal worth $100 million.
Jon Gruden’s Coaching Career Ended In Disastrous Fashion
During the 2021 season, emails were leaked of Gruden using homophobic and misogynistic language. He also used a racial trope to describe DeMaurice Smith, then the NFLPA executive director in 2011.
Gruden resigned soon after the scandal came to light, citing his wish to not be a distraction to the team. The Raiders made the playoffs under interim head coach Rich Bisaccia, marking just their second postseason appearance since 2003.
In his second stint as Raiders head coach, Gruden went 22-31. The team finished no better than 8-8 (in 2020) during that period.
