One of the earliest rumors among the first reports that Jon Gruden was coming back to coach for the Raiders was that he wanted Rich Gannon to be his quarterback coach. Both men have had very successful broadcast careers since they left football, Gruden on ESPN’s Monday Night Football and Gannon as part of a CBS gameday broadcast team.
This week, with talk of Gannon potentially leaving the booth and reuniting with Gruden on the Raiders’ sideline, his weekly appearance with Greg Papa on Bay Area radio station 95.7 The Game took on a new feel.
