About J. Carr Communications

Jason Carr founded J. Carr Communications to promote the philanthropic efforts of athletes, sports organizations, and sports-adjacent nonprofits.

About Jason

Jason has spent nearly 25 years in sports communications, starting with the American League Office of MLB, followed by time with the Seattle Mariners, PBA Tour, and then 18 seasons with the Chicago Cubs. He has worked with players, field staff, front office executives, and media from various backgrounds. His experiences in high-pressure environments showed him how vital honesty, empathy, and relationships are to accomplishing goals.

In 2024, Jason left the Cubs to be more present in his son’s life. Following time in corporate communications, he started J. Carr Communications to help others tell their philanthropic stories and promote their efforts to benefit others. He wants to highlight the positive impacts athletes and organizations make in their communities.

Testimonials

  • "Jason had the respect of everyone in our clubhouse. He genuinely cared about everyone one of us, and we knew he had our backs. He put in the work to make sure we were prepared when speaking to the media, and he was there for everyone, whether things were going well or not. With nearly two decades as a professional baseball player, I understand that's the kind of support you don't take for granted."

Jason brings a rare combination of deep sports media expertise and genuine passion for impact-driven storytelling. He's one of those rare collaborators who delivers excellent work while somehow making the whole process feel effortless. Jason is a total pro and genuinely a joy to work with."

  • "Jason and I have been friends and colleagues for a long time, including 14 seasons together running media relations for the Chicago Cubs and a memorable 2016 World Series championship season. While he's reliable and dedicated, what really stands out to me is his honesty and genuine care for the people around him. He helped to build an environment at the Cubs where the media felt welcomed, and our players and staff felt supported. He told the story of our team every single day with real pride. I trust Jason completely, and any organization that gets to work with him is lucky to have him."
