On this episode of Lawyers, Lines, and Money, Daniel Wallach and Justin Mader sit down to highlight sports betting stories around the NFL as the Super Bowl heads to Las Vegas. A city once shunned by the league will now become the center of the world's attention and host to one of the most highly wagered-on events every year.

Both Dan and Justin discuss this weekend's event and how it changes the narrative on the legitimacy of legalized sports betting in the United States. They discuss the shift in attitude the leagues have taken when it comes to sports betting. Starting with their opposition to legalization as it was proposed in Murphy v. NCAA to 2024 and the multitude of sports betting partnerships within the league. They also discuss the suspensions the NFL has handed out for sports betting policy violations and why it seems much more prevalent in the NFL as compared to the other major sports leagues. Finally, they discuss the Jaguars' ongoing saga with FanDuel as they look to recoup some of the $22 million in funds stolen from their organization by Amit Patel, a former finance manager for the team. Patel used the funds on daily fantasy and sports betting. He has since pleaded guilty to the charges brought against him.
