Jon Gruden is the current head coach of the Las Vegas Raiders, a position he's held since 2018. He was previously head coach of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers from 2002-2008, which included a Super Bowl XXXVII win over the Raiders, whom he had left at the end of the previous season. At the time, Gruden was the youngest head coach ever to win a Super Bowl when he accomplished the feat at 39 years, 5 months and 9 days.
In January 1992 when he was 28, Gruden was hired by Mike Holmgren, his former boss at the San Francisco 49ers, to be the special offensive assistant/wide receivers coach with the Green Bay Packers. After three seasons in Green Bay, Gruden became the offensive coordinator of the Philadelphia Eagles. Gruden was later chosen by the owner of the Raiders, Al Davis, to be their new head coach for the 1998 season. After compiling a 40–28 win-loss record (including playoffs) in four seasons with the Raiders, Gruden replaced Tony Dungy as head coach of the Buccaneers in 2002.
Upon taking a break from coaching after his time in Tampa, in 2009 Gruden was hired by ESPN as an NFL analyst, including a stint on Monday Night Football. He also hosted the show “Jon Gruden’s QB Camp”, where he analyzed film with hopeful NFL quarterbacks. He worked for the network through 2017. Born on August 17, 1963 in Sandusky, Ohio, Gruden played college football at Dayton and got his start in coaching when he was hired by the University of Tennessee as a grad assistant for the 1986-1987 season.
