Former NFL head coach and current ESPN analyst Jon Gruden will be in attendance at Neyland Stadium on November 3, 2026, when the Tennessee Volunteers host the Kentucky Wildcats in a Southeastern Conference matchup.
The Knoxville News Sentinel reported Tuesday that Gruden, who won Super Bowl XXXVII with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and previously coached the Oakland/Las Vegas Raiders, plans to watch the in-state rivalry game from Knoxville.
Gruden has maintained ties to the college football landscape through his broadcasting work with ESPN's Monday Night Football and his well-known "Gruden's QB Camp" series featuring draft prospects. His appearance at the Tennessee-Kentucky game adds a notable presence to the SEC East contest.
