FanDuel announced on Wednesday that former NCPG Executive Director Whyte has joined the operator as its new responsible gaming strategic advisor. Whyte left the NCPG abruptly and unexpectedly in January after 26 years with the organization, and not much light has been shed on his departure in the months since.
Now, he will advise the U.S. market-leading sportsbook on shaping its RG strategy and programs moving forward, including identifying new opportunities for advocacy, advancing and extending partnerships and leading and developing various RG-focused events. He will also contribute to FanDuel’s ongoing responsible gaming initiatives, including consulting on and creating new content for the Trusted Voices: Conversations About Betting program, which FanDuel launched last year in..
