STEELE: Gruden, Raiders need to embrace present rather than glorify past “Man, I’m trying to throw the game back to 1998,” he said....
According to the Tampa Bay Times, Gruden will join the staff at Carrollwood Day School, where his son Jayson is on the football team.

The first official poster for Universal’s Nope came from Peele via Twitter in July 2021. The image was incredibly artistic but limited in terms of the information it provided.

Peterson was then suspended by Twitter, and then shared a video on the topic calling out the “woke moralists” that banned him....
