Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Thursday announced a major announcement and said they will reintroduce former head coach Jon Gravel’s place in their honorary ring.
The gravel was removed in 2021 after withdrawing from his position as head coach of Las Vegas Raiders after E emails with racist, homophobic and misogynistic languages came out in several reports.
Since then, the gravel was the only position in the league as a consultant at New Orleans Saints. Then he joined the media, started his own YouTube channel and recently joined Barstool Sports.

But Buccaneers have had a change in the heart and they released a declaration of their decision.
“Jon the gravel was originally introduced in the Buccaneers Ring of Honor based on his many results during his seven seasons as our head coach, and he is still a significant figure in the history of our franchise,” the team’s statement reads.
“After further reflection, we have decided to reintroduce him in the Buccaneers Ring of Honor.”
Raider’s owner Mark Davis says Jon Great’s resignation set up organization: ‘His head was chopped off’
The Great Office of the Great as Tampa Bay’s main coach from 2000-08 contained the organization’s first Vince Lombardi trophy to win the Super Bowl XXXVII in 2003.
Bucs went 57-55 in the regular season as well as 3-2 in the playoffs during the seven seasons of the grape with the team.

Raiders owner Mark Davis recently commented on the resignation of the gravel in 2021, which ended his tenure at the club prematurely, which had signed him for a massive 10-year contract in 2018.
Davis said he thinks the departure of the grape put the organization back quite a bit.
“He was someone I brought in, and really expected to be the person on the football side who would bring stability to the organization,” Davis told media members as they introduced Pete Carroll as Raiders’ new head coach late last month. “He had a 10-year contract and all that-and his head was chopped off.”
The grout, which sues the NFL, got his e -mails leaked, which saw him using derogatory remarks aimed at NFL commissioner Roger Goodell and NFLPA CEO Demaurice Smith, among others.

But the grease has tried to remain in the game as best he can, now in his media concert, and Buccaneers seems to let go by the past.
