Remember what head coach Jon Gruden said after the Oakland Raiders traded Khalil Mack?
“It wasn’t my goal to trade Khalil when we got here,” he said early this season. “One of the reasons I’m here is because of him. Unfortunately, we had a standoff with a contract, and we could not come to terms. The [Chicago] Bears made us an offer of two first-round draft choices and here we are today.”
How about what Gruden said about Amari Cooper when he was first rehired?
“He’ll be the focal point of our offense,” Gruden said at the NFL Scouting Combine.
