Raiders announce 1st Black woman team president in NFL history

The Las Vegas Raiders welcomed Sandra Douglass Morgan, the first Black woman ever to serve as team president in NFL history.

The Las Vegas Raiders welcomed Sandra Douglass Morgan, the first Black woman ever to serve as team president in NFL history, on Thursday.

Her appointment pioneers a new path of diverse leadership in the NFL's history, but she has long made strides in diversifying various bureaucracies in her home state of Nevada. The Raiders brought Morgan onboard at a challenging time, shortly after former team president Dan Ventrelle was fired in May.

"I am thrilled that Sandra has agreed to join the Raiders family," Raiders owner Mark Davis said in the press release.
