JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- Former Jacksonville Jaguars player Dan Skuta has filed a notice of opposition to the team attempting to trademark the term "Sacksonville."
Skuta claims in his filing that he created the Sacksonville brand in July 2015 -- shortly after he signed as a free agent with the Jaguars -- and also created a logo, an Instagram account and a Twitter account using the term.
He also says his company, Yeti, LLC, has been selling Sacksonville merchandise before the Jaguars began using the term last September. Per Skuta's filing, the Jaguars filed to trademark the term on Oct. 18, 2017.
