Fraud Controversy Worth $22M
The former Jacksonville Jaguars executive Amit Patel is accused of stealing over $22 million from the franchise.
He reportedly bought several luxury items, including two vehicles, a condominium, and a designer watch.
Amit Patel was named in the court documents filed in U.S. District Court in Jacksonville, Fla. However, the Jaguars were not mentioned in the federal filing — the organization was referred to as “Business A.”
Later, it was confirmed that Jaguars was the victim of Patel’s alleged crimes. “We can confirm that in February 2023, the team terminated the employment of the individual named in the filing,” the team said in a statement.
They were open about their charges and said that Patel took advantage of his trusted position to covertly and intentionally commit significant fraudulent financial activity.
The team also clarified that upon a comprehensive independent review, they concluded that no other team employees were involved in or aware of his criminal activity.
On the other hand, Patel’s attorney did not immediately respond to an interview request. Similarly, the assistant U.S. Attorney also did not respond to a request for comment.
Patel, who was linked with the Jaguars from 2018-2022, oversaw the company’s monthly financial statements.
Just before his exit, he also served as the club’s administrator of its virtual credit card (VCC) program, which allowed him for business-related purchases or expenses.
Since the beginning of September 2019, Patel allegedly hid transactions by identifying “reoccurring VCC transactions, such as catering, airfare, and hotel charges, and then duplicated those transactions.
Amit Patel Used The Fraudulent Money For Personal Expenses

His alleged misappropriation included the acquisition of a condominium, a new Tesla Model 3, and a Nissan pickup truck. Patel’s extravagant spending extended to a $95,000 watch, showcasing the extent of his luxury purchases.
Moreover, he reportedly invested in cryptocurrency and NFTs (non-fungible tokens).
Additionally, Patel is said to have secured a country club membership. Furthermore, he engaged in online gambling and utilized the illicit funds for personal travel, both for himself and his friends.
