The National Football League has been innovating more and more in the past decade with technology. From expanded instant replay to automatic player trackers for TV broadcasts, one team is looking at technology in a different way; player care.
The Jacksonville Jaguars were the first team in the NFL to partner with Catapult Sports, a technology company that manufactures wearable GPS trackers to monitor an athlete’s position and speed during games and practices. Over the last four years, the Jags have worked with Catapult to better understand their hardware and determine how to best take advantage of the innovative product.
