Former NFL head coach Jon Gruden is open to working in the college ranks and might garner some consideration, according to CBS Sports' Brandon Marcello.

"Yeah, I'm interested in coaching," Gruden told Marcello. "My dad was a college coach, I was a college coach at Pitt, my wife was a cheerleader at Tennessee when I met her. Hell yeah, I'm interested in coaching. I know I can help a team, I know I can help young players get better, and I know I can hire a good staff, and that's the only thing I can guarantee.
