NFL Taps TV Veteran Jordan Levin for Content Officer

Wall Street Journal: As the National Football League continues to expand the number of platforms that carry games and related content, it has named a veteran of traditional television and digital media to oversee its programming efforts. Jordan Levin — who as a television programmer championed popular teen shows including “Dawson’s Creek” and “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” and most recently was EVP of Microsoft’s now-defunct Xbox Entertainment Studios — will become the NFL’s first chief content officer. Levin will be responsible for the development and implementation of content for the league on its owned properties, including the NFL Network and the NFL Now online platform, and work with other media partners that have rights to carry football.
