Jon Gruden has come in and made an immediate impact on the Oakland Raiders roster for better or worse.  Marquette King is a good punter and was a popular Raider but the organization thought it was better to move on from him.  This story isn’t unique to sports but when King gets picked up that quickly and in the division it just rubs some salt in the wounds of Raiders fans.  What do you think of this?  It will be odd to see King blasting away football’s from that powerful right leg of his all while in a Denver Broncos uniform.  Raider fans are hoping that King is punting a lot because that means their offense won’t be successful but he was one of theirs and that is always hard to take.
