The newest episode of Trine University’s Center for Sports Studies podcast features the former chief financial officer of the Indianapolis Colts, Kurt Humphrey.

oversight and reporting, monitoring the salary cap, and working with players to help
them understand the NFL’s financial processes.
In this episode, he talks about the CFO’s role in professional football, how the NFL
is unique compared to other businesses, and shares some behind-the-scenes stories,
including his favorite memories from working with the Colts.

and current research in sports studies. Hosted by Center for Sports Studies director
