A federal court filing four months ago revealed new e-mail correspondence of former Washington Football Team executive Bruce Allen that extended beyond Jon Gruden.
A Los Angeles Times source confirmed the contents of emails the New York Times reported not included in the June court filing were accurate.
ESPN released the following statement in response to the correspondence: “Without sharing all the specifics of the reporter’s process for a story from 10 years ago during the NFL lockout, we believe that nothing is more important to Adam and ESPN than providing fans the most accurate, fair and complete story.”Gruden is the epitome of how the game is played in a multibillion-dollar industry in which the leaders don’t expect anyone to hold them accountable.
The correspondence with media, including Gruden, Schefter and others covering the team, refuted Allen’s sworn statement he “maintained a low profile with respect to the media” and “never served as an anonymous source for any news or media reports.” Las Vegas Raiders head coach Jon Gruden speaks during a news conference after a game against the Chicago Bears on Oct. 10 in Las Vegas.shortly after the New York Times published its story. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers, a team Gruden led to a Super Bowl title, announced Tuesday they were removing him from their Ring of Honor.
More than 650,000 emails on the team’s server were reviewed as part of the probe. When that was completed, according to a league source not authorized to speak publicly on the matter, the league was informed about the existence of emails that “raised issues beyond the scope of that investigation.”
