JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- Macky Weaver, a 19-year veteran of the Jaguars front office, has stepped down.

He announced his resignation Monday afternoon. The Jaguars praised his years of service as a charter member of the front office team.

"Macky Weaver is one of a handful of people who can say they helped put the Jaguars on the map here in Jacksonville, and he should always be very proud of that," Jaguars owner Shad Khan said. "I'll always appreciate his personal efforts to introduce me to the community and make me feel at home as the new owner of the Jaguars."
