NFL’s Jaguars Hire Veteran Sports Lawyer as New General Counsel
“The Jacksonville Jaguars have hired Justin Sievert to fill a general counsel role that has had its two previous occupants depart in recent months. Amanda Holt, a spokeswoman for the National Football League franchise, confirmed that Sievert started Monday with the Jaguars. He will report to,” reports Brian Baxter in Bloomberg Law.
“Sievert didn’t respond to a request for comment about his new role. The job opened up after former Jaguars general counsel Lauren Strackbine joined the National Hockey League’s San Jose Sharks last month as a deputy general counsel. Strackbine reunited with Sharks general counsel Cassie McBride, who joined the NHL team over.”
