- Jacksonville Jaguars announce contract extension for team president Mark Lamping
The Jacksonville Jaguars and team president Mark Lamping will be attached until at least through the 2030 season after the team announced a contract extension with Lamping on Tuesday morning.
Lamping became the team's president in 2012, not long after owner Shad Khan bought the Jaguars late in 2011. Lamping was the CEO of MetLife Stadium before coming to Jacksonville .

"As we look ahead at what will be crucially important years for the Jaguars off the field, especially given all that involves the Stadium of the Future project, the leadership of Mark Lamping is needed more than ever," Khan said via a statement released by the team.
"I'm very happy and proud to say that Mark will continue to serve as our team president, and I thank Mark for his commitment to making the Jacksonville Jaguars a model business organization throughout the NFL and in all of sports."
Jacksonville Jaguars 2025 offseason: How much cap space, dead cap does the team have?
The Jaguars have undergone serious renovations this offseason with fresh faces at the front-office and coaching levels. Jacksonville has already hired head coach Liam Coen and Tony Boselli as the team's executive vice president of football operations . They're currently looking for a new general manager and interviews will take place over the next week and a half with a hire expected at any point.

Now, Lamping represents some stability for the franchise as they get set to embark on a major stadium renovation plan. Work toward that plan will begin this year with construction starting next season under a reduced-capacity plan. In 2027, the team will play elsewhere, either at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium in Gainesville, or at Camping World Stadium in Orlando.
Lamping has been at the center of all of it and will continue to work toward the team's objections in conjunction with the city's.
"It was a privilege to be named president of the Jacksonville Jaguars in 2012 and my experience since that moment has been rewarding in every respect imaginable," Lamping said via a statement released by the team.
"I am grateful to Shad and his family for the opportunity to continue in our mission to make the Jaguars and, by extension, Downtown Jacksonville and our community the very best they can be. I'm especially in debt to my colleagues throughout our front office.

"They're the ones who come through for our organization every day and are every bit as confident as I am that we will meet and exceed our potential in the years ahead."
