NFL executive named Kroenke Sports & Entertainment president

DENVER — Los Angeles Rams president Kevin Demoff was named Thursday as president of team and media operations for Kroenke Sports and Entertainment (KSE).

KSE said that Demoff will continue to serve as president of the Los Angeles Rams while adding on his new duties that include overseeing operations of all KSE teams, including the Denver Nuggets, Colorado Avalanche, Colorado Rapids and Colorado Mammoth. He will also oversee operations for all KSE Media properties including Altitude Sports and Entertainment, KSE Radio and Outdoor Sportsman Group.

Demoff will report to Josh Kroenke, who is listed as president of the Nuggets and Avalanche. He will continue to report to Stan Kroenke for all matters related to the Rams.

KSE also announced longtime executive Mike Nearly is being promoted to vice president of business operations and development. He will oversee operations of various KSE companies and venues, notably Ball Arena, Dick’s Sporting Goods Park and the Paramount Theatre.

Last month, KSE announced former COO and EVP Matt Hutchings was resigning to move back to his home state of Texas and pursue opportunities there.

“I am honored and humbled to take on this role with KSE, and I am grateful to Stan and Josh for this opportunity,” Demoff said. “I am excited to work with so many talented teammates who have helped KSE become the most influential sports and entertainment company in the world. With the goal of sustaining winning cultures and organizations that transcend the field, court, or ice, we will collaboratively build a best-in-class experience for our fans in Denver, Los Angeles, and around the globe.”
