Jon Gruden joins arena team's ownership group

Super Bowl-winning coach Jon Gruden joined the ownership group of the Nashville Kats of the Arena Football 1 league on Monday.
Gruden, 61, will have "consulting and advisory roles in all aspects of the team's football and business operations," the team said.
Former Tennessee Titans coach Jeff Fisher holds a majority stake in the team and is the league's commissioner.
"The Nashville Kats and the Arena Football 1 league are very excited to have someone with Jon's experience and expertise and success to not only be part of the ownership but also take an active role in a variety of ways within the organization," Fisher said.
Gruden compiled a 117-112 record as a head coach over parts of 15 NFL seasons with the Oakland/Las Vegas Raiders (1998-2001, 2018-21) and Tampa Bay Buccaneers (2002-08). He led the Bucs to a Super Bowl XXXVII championship in his first season there and was inducted into the team's Ring of Honor
"I have been a fan of indoor football for a long time and jumped at the opportunity to be involved with Jeff and the Nashville Kats as part of the ownership group," Gruden said. "I have so much respect for what Jeff has done over his career and continues to do with the Nashville Kats and as commissioner of AF1. I'm excited to be part of the team."
The Kats (3-2) have won their last three games under head coach and general manager Darren Arbet.
