Ousted for political incorrectness — Jon Gruden deserves a MASSIVE NFL apology

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have officially reinstated Jon Gruden back into their Ring of Honor after labeling him a racist for the past four years.

“I think in 2021, when Jon Gruden got lynched and strung up by Roger Goodell and the media that Roger Goodell controls, over emails, private emails, that he exchanged where he didn’t speak in politically correct terms,” Jason Whitlock of “Fearless” explains.

Gruden reportedly called Goodell the “f-word” and said that DeMaurice Smith, who was the executive director of the NFL Players Association, had “big rubber lips.”

“Everybody whined and cried and Jon Gruden lost his job, was forced out with the Raiders and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers took him out of their ring of honor,” Whitlock says. “Well, now they’ve caught religion and believe in forgiveness.”

A statement from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers reads, “Jon Gruden was initially inducted into the Bucs Ring of Honor based on his many accomplishments during his seven seasons as our head coach, and he remains a significant figure in the history of our franchise. Upon further reflection, we have decided to reinstate him into the Buccaneers Ring of Honor.”

Whitlock isn’t impressed.

“The Pro Football Hall of Fame had already established a precedent. OJ Simpson has never been removed from Canton. If OJ Simpson can be in Canton, Ohio, Jon Gruden should have stayed in the Ring of Honor, the Pro Football Hall of Fame,” Whitlock says.

“And trust me, there’s other guys in the Pro Football Hall of Fame that have written worse emails than Jon Gruden, and it just never made sense to me,” he adds.
