Jon Gruden eager to discover 'truth' in NFL emails lawsuit

Jon Gruden said Tuesday that he is eager to discover the truth in a Nevada courtroom about whether commissioner Roger Goodell and the NFL leaked emails to the media before he was forced to resign as Raiders head coach in 2021.

"I'm looking forward to having the truth come out and I want to make sure what happened to me doesn't happen to anyone else," Gruden said in a statement provided to ESPN.

Gruden said he blames the NFL for leaking the emails, which led the league to pressure the Raiders to force him out when the team was 3-1.
