The Las Vegas Raiders and head coach Jon Gruden had a disastrous ending when the NFL discovered evidence implicating Gruden in misogynistic, sexist, and racial behavior. Gruden resigned. Apart from the serious charges, Gruden intimidated a number of NFL players.
One of the emails in which Jon Gruden made racial remarks about DeMaurice Smith was discovered on the computers of the Washington Football Team during an unrelated probe, which marked the beginning of the investigation. Following the email’s distribution, Jon Gruden said:
“My life may not have been at its finest during that period. I let a lot of steam out. I never thought we were receiving honesty and the whole truth. Gruden apologized for offending De Smith, saying, “I never had a racial thought when I used it. I’m ashamed of what I see in the world. It’s definitely not how I intended it to sound.” (In 2011, Gruden was an ESPN employee.)
Following Jon Gruden’s resignation, Rich Bisaccia has taken over as the Las Vegas Raiders’ interim head coach. Until the new head coach is officially announced, Bisaccia may continue in this role for the duration of the 2021 NFL season.
