The Las Vegas Raiders Just Announced They’re Hiring People Sandra Douglas* Morgan to become the team’s new president…making her the first black woman to play such a role in NFL history.
“I’m excited to join you as we embark on one of the most exciting times in our organization’s history,” Morgan said in a letter announcing her appointment, obtained by the Las Vegas Review Journal†
“I look forward to meeting you all in person in the coming weeks,” she added.
Morgan – a lawyer and the former chairman of the Nevada Gaming Control Board – is stepping into her new role just months after the then team leader. Dan Ventrelle was fired by the organization.
Ventrelle claims the only reason he was let go is because he reported to the NFL that the team owner Mark Davis nothing has been done to address the problem of a hostile work environment.
Morgan joins the Raiders with an extensive resume — last year she served as vice chair of the Las Vegas Super Bowl Host Committee and worked with the Nevada State Athletic Commission.
The former attorney joins the Raiders after a troubling year for the franchise – several of the team’s biggest stars ran into trouble off the field…and Jon Gruden resigned after found to have used offensive language in emails†
Morgan’s husband, mafia bossused to play in the NFL for the Minnesota Vikings and Arizona Cardinals… and she has been associated with Vegas since a young age.
“The Raiders have a long legacy of greatness, thanks to all of you and to visionaries like Mark’s father, Al,” Morgan wrote.
“Let’s carry that spirit together into this new season for Raider Nation and the Las Vegas community.”
