In its announcement, the company posted one video on its website where Gruden was breaking down a play called “Spider Y 2 Banana” to other Barstool employees but did not specify Gruden’s role.

Gruden was in his second stint as the head coach of the Las Vegas Raiders in 2021 and in the fourth year of a reported $100 million contract when he resigned after it was reported that he wrote emails over a decade that had homophobic, racist, and misogynistic language in them.

When he wrote those emails to former Commanders team president Bruce Allen, Gruden was the lead analyst for Monday Night Football on ESPN, which included comments about former NFL Players Association executive director DeMaurice Smith and NFL commissioner Roger Goodell.
