Patel was diagnosed with a gambling disorder a month after he was fired by the Jaguars, according to a court filing. And his defense in the original case was that his addiction drove him to steal the funds.

Amit Patel alleged in the complaint that FanDuel engaged in predatory practices to entice him to make deposits and wagers.

A former financial manager for the NFL’s Jacksonville Jaguars who stole $22 million from the team is suing FanDuel for $250 million, saying the betting company preyed on his gambling addiction.
