In 2018, the Raiders franchise had signed a 10-year, $100 million contract with Gruden but had to resign after a New York Times report. It revealed a chain of emails sent between the 2011 to 2018 time period and Gruden was reported of having a history of behavior that the Raiders do not stand for.
While addressing the rumors, he states, “I love the Raiders and do not want to be a distraction. Thank you to all the players, coaches, staff, and fans of Raider Nation. I’m sorry, I never meant to hurt anyone.”
