On Tuesday, Neil Stratton (friend of Sports Agent Blog and owner of InsideTheLeague.com) reported that Damien Moore announced his intentions to leave All Pro Sports & Entertainment, Inc. (APSE).  Stratton stated that Moore had served in a number of roles at APSE, including the role of legal counsel for the company.

“Damien’s departure was a mutual decision, and I wish him the best,” says C. Lamont Smith, Founder and Principal of APSE.

Moore is a certified NFLPA Contract Advisor and may soon be hired by an agency looking to expand its presence in the southeast United States.  It is assumed that, going forward, Jackie Byron Wilson, II will assume Moore’s role as legal counsel for APSE.
