Frank Caliendo hilariously channeled Raiders coach Jon Gruden on Zoom for first time
Some NFL fans may watch this week’s draft just to see what it looks like.
The draft was supposed to be in Las Vegas with players coming on stage after hearing their name called by commissioner Roger Goodell. But because of the COVID-19 pandemic, that won’t happen.
Instead, team officials will use a video-conference system to make picks, and well, many people only recently have learned how to use Zoom for the first time because of the coronavirus.
More users downloaded Zoom in the first two months of this year than in all of 2019, MarketWatch reported. And first-time Zoom users are not all tech savvy, a fact “Saturday Night Live” spoofed recently.
On Monday, comedian/actor Frank Caliendo impersonated Raiders coach Jon Gruden using Zoom for the first time ahead of the NFL Draft. Things didn’t go well, and it’s pretty funny.
