As Jon Gruden and the Raiders enter the post-Antonio Brown era in Oakland, the head coach offered a few passing remarks to the wideout’s new employer.

“You know, we gave it a shot. Now New England gets their turn. Good luck to them,” Gruden said after the Raiders’ 24-16 win over the Broncos on Monday night.

That relationship started with Patriots quarterback Tom Brady spending time with Brown on Monday.

“Antonio, meeting him today, I really enjoyed being around him,” Brady said Monday during his Westwood One interview, via ESPN. “He’s a very smart football player, knows how to play the game. He’s been extremely productive.”

Following a chaotic series of events last week, which included Brown getting into a heated confrontation with Raiders GM Mike Mayock, the polarizing receiver demanded the Raiders release him Saturday. After getting his wish, Brown joined the Patriots hours later.

Without Brown, the Patriots routed the Steelers 33-3 on Sunday night and take on the pitiful Dolphins in Week 2.

“The only thing that I know what we can do is to go out there and work at it, to meet and to communicate, and get on the practice field and go through things,” Brady said.

“I’m not buying into any hype or potential. I’m into work. He’s into work and our entire offense is into doing what’s in the best interest for the team. I’m really excited to get to practice on Wednesday.”

Brady also said he offered to have Brown stay at his house because “I just want him to be comfortable.”

The Raiders looked just fine without the combustible receiver. Quarterback Derek Carr completed 22 out of 26 attempts for 259 yards and one touchdown. With Gruden and his team moving forward with a win under their belt, he would like to drop the ongoing Brown narrative.

“As much as people talk about it, I mean, my God,” Gruden said. “Man, I feel like someone smashed me in my temple on the side of the head. Get over it, man. It’s over. You know? We were good in the preseason without him. We’re going to be fine without him. And we wish him the best.”
