The Nevada Supreme Court ruled in favor of former Las Vegas Raiders head coach Jon Gruden, allowing his 2021 lawsuit against the NFL and Commissioner Roger Goodell to proceed. Gruden alleges that the NFL and Goodell improperly leaked emails he wrote, which led to his resignation from the Raiders amid controversy over racist, misogynist, and anti-LGBTQ content in those emails. The court upheld a previous decision that denied the NFL's motion to force Gruden's complaint into arbitration, clearing the way for discovery and a potential trial. This ruling represents a key legal victory for Gruden in his ongoing dispute with the league.
