Jaguars announce extension for Team President
Lamping has been the Jaguars' President since 2012 and part of his job description includes leading the team's business operations.
Owner Shad Khan had this to say about the extension:
"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. "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."
The Jaguars have already undergone a number of changes this offseason. They, of course, moved on from head coach Doug Pederson and general manager Trent Baalke.
The team then hired Liam Coen to be the next head coach, and he has since filled out his coaching staff. Khan would also name Tony Boselli the team's Executive Vice President of Football Operations.
At this time, the Jaguars are still conducting their search for their next general manager. As of now, there are six candidates interviewing for the role.

Abdul Carter had an Embarrassing 'Welcome to the NFL' Play on Saturday
Abdul Carter had an Embarrassing 'Welcome to the NFL' Play on Saturday originally appeared on Athlon Sports. All eyes were on Abdul Carter and the New York Giants on Saturday afternoon in Week 2 of the preseason as they hosted the New York Jets. After an impressive NFL preseason debut against the Buffalo Bills a week ago, Carter — the former No. 3 overall pick in the 2025 NFL draft — did what he could to hype up his fans, posting a Star Wars video on his social media to build the hype. Unfortunately, things played out differently against the Jets. In the first half of the game, Carter had his first big "welcome to the NFL" moment, getting chipped to the ground by tight end Stone Smartt, and then pancaked by right tackle Jay Tufele. For someone who stands 6-foot-3, 250 pounds, it was a rather surprising thing to see, especially as talented as Carter is. What Fans Are Saying About Abdul Carter's Mishap There are multiple videos on social media of Carter's unfortunate play, one of which has 1.2 million views already. Others have upwards of 400k views, so you can easily say that this play is going viral. Here's a look at what some fans are saying: "Welcome to the league, young fella," one fan wrote. "Hit the gym, young fella," another added. "Abdul Carter is gonna have his flashy sacks, but he is also gonna have a lot of these plays," said another. "Good player, but not a savant like Micah Parsons." "Abdul Carter is an objectively incredible physical specimen and he just got de-cleated by a TE," one fan said. "NFL talent is so different man. Happens to the best of them." Abdul Carter Stats and Outlook Carter ended up recording just a single tackle in this game, which was a 31-12 win for the Giants. Going forward, there are high expectations for the rookie on New York's front line, especially playing alongside the likes of Kayvon Thibodeaux and Dexter Lawrence. The Giants are hopeful that they can be a decent team in 2025, but there are major questions to answer at the quarterback position. Right now, Russell Wilson is projected to be the starter, but guys like Jameis Winston, Jaxson Dart, and Tommy DeVito are all in the mix as story was originally reported by Athlon Sports on Aug 17, 2025, where it first appeared.

Saints coach Kellen Moore not ready to name QB starter between Spencer Rattler, Tyler Shough: 'It's really, really close'
Only one quarterback battle remains. The Cleveland Browns named Joe Flacco their starter on Monday. The Indianapolis Colts announced Daniel Jones as theirs on Tuesday. That leaves the New Orleans Saints, who are still deciding between second-year pro Spencer Rattler and rookie Tyler Shough. Saints head coach Kellen Moore addressed the competition on Tuesday. He sounds no closer to making a decision than he was at the start of training camp. 'It's close,' Moore told reporters Tuesday. 'We look at every aspect of this quarterback situation. It's really, really close. Numbers, experience reps, everything. It's going all the way back to the start of training camp. Everything is very, very close between this group.' [Join or create a Yahoo Fantasy Football league for the 2025 NFL season] Moore's not only fielding question about the Saints quarterback from media. He says he gets them at home from his kids as well. Moore gives his kids the same answers he gives to reporters. "There's a lot of people who like to ask about the quarterbacks, my kids included," Moore said. "It's a fun conversation. "They've got advice about everything. Every bad decision, every throw, every play call. They've got it all." Who will win the job? So who's got the edge? That remains a mystery with one preseason game remaining on the schedule. Rattler's more of a known commodity. The 2024 fifth-round pick started six games as a rookie last year, completing 57% of his passes for 188.1 yards per game with four touchdowns and five interceptions — not exactly inspiring starting quarterback stuff. The Saints selected Shough in the second round of April's draft as the third quarterback off the board amid the then-uncertain future of quarterback Derek Carr. Both are now competing for the starting job following Carr's unexpected retirement due to a lingering shoulder injury. Neither has done enough to win the job while splitting starts in New Orleans' first two preseason games. How they'e looked Rattler's completed 25 of 35 passes (71.4%) for 251 yards (7.2 yards per attempt) with one touchdown and one interception. Shough's completed 24 of 34 passes (70.6%) for 231 yards (6.8 yards per attempt), also with one touchdown and one interception. Each performed better as the backup quarterback while facing defensive competition deeper on the opponents' depth charts. As for who will start in Saturday's preseason finale against the Denver Broncos? Moore wasn't even ready to announce a starter for that game. "We've got three days of practice and a game, so we've got some excellent work coming our way," Moore said. As for when he'll make a decision? Moore answered, jokingly, that it will "hopefully" come before New Orleans' Week 1 game against the Arizona Cardinaos.

Robert Griffin III ‘convinced' Colts are tanking for Arch Manning after Daniel Jones decision
Robert Griffin III has his own theory behind what the Colts are trying to do this season, and it's not to win games. The former NFL quarterback railed on the Colts on social media on Tuesday after it was announced that former Giants quarterback Daniel Jones — not Anthony Richardson — would be the team's Week 1 starting quarterback and he wrote on X that he's 'convinced that the Indianapolis Colts are trying to tank for Arch Manning.' But RGIII wasn't done there either, shortly after posting that he believes it to be the case 'whether Arch comes out in 2026 or 2027' and that it was 'Because the plan at QB doesn't make sense.' 3 Robert Griffin III Getty Images He later shared a graphic with a quote from Manning, which had been said later in the day on Tuesday, where he had pushed back on comments by his grandfather, Archie Manning, that the current Texas starting QB would still be playing college football in 2026. 'The Indianapolis Colts simply don't trust or believe in Anthony Richardson enough to start him over Daniel Jones. It's time for Anthony Richardson to get a change of scenery. A new start,' Griffin also wrote on X on Tuesday. 'It worked for Baker Mayfield. It worked for Sam Darnold. It worked for Geno Smith.' The decision to name Jones the starting quarterback in Indianapolis stunned many people and irritated Richardson's camp, with his agent sending a stern message to the Colts in an interview with ESPN on Tuesday. Richardson was selected No. 4 overall by the Colts in the 2023 draft. 3 Daniel Jones was named the Colts' starter on Tuesday. AP Colts head coach Shane Steichen told reporters on Tuesday that Jones was 'the starting quarterback for the season' and that he didn't 'want to have a short leash on that.' Richardson, who has played just 15 games in two seasons because of injuries, indicated that there was 'no hard feelings' over the decision and that it was one that 'we've got to live with.' 3 Arch Manning Jordan Godfree-Imagn Images 'I've just got to keep growing. I just can't let me not being a starter stop me from going and being the person, the player that I'm supposed to be,' he said.
