HENDERSON, Nev. (AP) — Coach Jon Gruden said he supports the Las Vegas Raiders’ new policy requiring fans attending regular-season home games to show proof of vaccination for COVID-19. The policy will take effect for the Raiders’ home opener on Sept. 13 against Baltimore. I support the decision that was made,“ Gruden said after practice Tuesday as his team prepared to depart for joint practices in LA before Saturday’s game against the Rams. “We’ve had four events with masks mandated (at Allegiant Stadium) and it’s so impossible to police,” Raiders owner Mark Davis said during a new conference Tuesday to address the vaccine policy. Backup QB Marcus Mariota, whom Gruden said had tweaked his leg during an Aug. 8 practice, was back on the practice field, as was S Karl Joseph.
