Former Raiders head coach Jon Gruden, who resigned last month after racist, misogynistic and anti-gay emails surfaced, is suing the NFL and Commissioner Roger Goodell.
“Through a malicious and orchestrated campaign, the NFL and Commissioner Roger Goodell sought to destroy the career and reputation of Jon Gruden, the former head coach of the Las Vegas Raiders,” the lawsuit filed Thursday in Clark County District Court stated.
Grudent’s lawyers wrote in the 21-page complaint that he was “forced to resign.”
“When their initial salvo did not result in Gruden’s firing or resignation, Defendants ratcheted up the pressure by intimating that further documents would become public if Gruden was not fired,” the lawsuit stated. “They followed through with this threat by leaking another batch of documents to the New York Times for an October 11, 2021 article. On October 7, 2021, Jon Gruden was the head coach of the Raiders on a 10-year, $100-million contract. By October 11, 2021, he had been forced to resign.”

The enemy of my enemy is my friend
I hope he got a lot of his contract money up front and he wins the lawsuit big time.
Good for him. Long past time to sue these bastards. Go woke, go broke.
Good luck.
Gruden was Mr. PC, now he doesn’t like it?
Gruden picks 6.
It’ll take years-the lawsuit. Don’t hold your breath.
I hope he’s not is this for a quick payoff.
Discovery would be really intertesting...
“If you agree with me, knock on wood”
Just like with Rogers, don’t come complaining about your fleas. We know how you got ‘em.

I like it when they all start eating each other.
I find it amusing that supposedly intelligent people would write things down that most folks would not say in public.
In the early 1990s our company started email. Our lawyer made everyone go through a class about how everything written in an email was discoverable by both the sender and receiver. He stressed that face to face communications were the way to go if you were going to say something “stupid.”
I have to wonder if that lesson is not taught these days.
I’m not sure Aaron Rodgers is the same.
Isn’t the war on heritage the worst element of fascism? The target is always our heritage. (Our Liberty demanding settler heritage, as opposed to dependence upon a collectivist regime.)
It’s called Tortious Interference of Trade. He could win.
The suit will never go to trial. NFL will settle and so will Gruden. The discovery would be so full of so many cans of worms there’s no way the NFL could endure it.
