Former Oakland Raiders and Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Jon Gruden, 53, said in an interview on Wednesday on the ESPN radio talk show Mike And Mike In The Morning he has no intention to return to be the head coach of any National Football League team in 2017 that will have a head coaching vacancy. Gruden was the head coach of the Oakland Raiders from 1998-2001 and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers from 2002-2008 before he landed on his feet working at ESPN for their Monday Night Football telecasts as their color commentator replacing Tony Kornheiser who co-host a talk show with Michael Wilbon called "Pardon The Interruption." Gruden is very happy working at the laugh out loud Worldwide Leader In Sports on Monday Night Football and his football camp show. As of now there are two head coaching vacancies with the Los Angeles Rams and the Jacksonville Jaguars when Jeff Fisher and Gus Bradley were fired recently by their respective bosses at the two football teams. Of course when the 2016 regular football season ends, there is likely to be more head coaches that will be terminated by their bosses on what is called by the media Black Monday.
