NFL promotes John Hussey to referee, announces 10 new officials

As the league continues to churn the roster of officials, they’ve added 10 new names to the pool this offseason.

The league just released the roster of 122 game officials for the coming season, which includes two hands worth of newcomers.

The league has also promoted John Hussey to referee to replace Bill Leavy, who has been promoted to the league office as a supervisor.

“John Hussey has proven to be an outstanding official and we expect that to continue as he moves to the referee position,” said NFL vice president of officiating Dean Blandino said.
