Jon Gruden is the talk of the NFL this week.

After being outed for having racist, misogynistic, and homophobic emails, Gruden turned in his resignation as head coach of the Raiders.

Even after Jon Gruden resigned, some more troubling messages have been uncovered from his inner circle of friends that talked about happenings in the NFL.

In one email a “redacted ESPN personality” called out Colin Kaepernick, saying the 49ers should cut the QB for kneeling for the anthem.

“They suspend people for taking amino acids they should cut this f–k,” the “Redacted – ESPN Personality” wrote.

In response, former WFT president Bruce Allen declared his outrage, to which the personality responded “good for you”.

Jon Gruden released a short statement after handing in his resignation.

“I have resigned as Head Coach of the Las Vegas Raiders. I love the Raiders and do not want to be a distraction,” Gruden said in his statement. “Thank you to all the players, coaches, staff, and fans of Raider Nation. I’m sorry, I never meant to hurt anyone.”

It would be a shock if Jon Gruden ever gets another job in the NFL or media.
