Gruden is currently suing the NFL and Commissioner Roger Goodell, accusing him of “selectively leaking” emails in an orchestrated effort to force him out as Raiders coach.

The emails were sent to Bruce Allen, former team president of the former Commander, and were part of an investigation into Washington’s work culture under then-owner Daniel Snyder.

However, there have been recent reports that Gruden’s exile from the league could be coming to an end.

Former Jets quarterback Boomer Esiason said Wednesday on his WFAN morning show that he believed Gruden would soon return to an NFL sideline.

“I can confirm that he absolutely wants to come back 100 percent,” Esiason said. “I can also confirm – and I believe this to be true, this is my opinion after speaking to at least two people involved in coaching searches and the like – that there are teams interested in him. And if it’s not a year, then it’s next year. But he will come back, he will definitely come back.”

The Jets and Saints have already fired their coaches and several other positions will likely open after the season.
