Agents Prepare Athletes Beyond the Game

One thing that people probably don't associate with sports agents having to know is like, the benefits, like health benefits that players get, right? So obviously you expect us to know money, you expect us to know contract values, that kind of thing, because that's negotiation. But what we also have to know is if a player gets hurt because of an injury, how do you guide them through that process? Right? What does their medical recovery look like? It's not always as easy as the player is going to get helped by the team. They could get released by the team and need 1, 2, 3 opinions go on workman's comp. Now we have to navigate that state's work comp on top of the NFL's processes. And so I would say that's one of the things that really gets a lot of people are the benefits that you have to memorize. Like, we're over here having to understand, like, the 401k that the NFL has, you know, the matching that the NFL has, like, stuff that will never apply to me and I don't get a percentage on, so why should it matter, right? But it's so you can educate your player so they're set up for life after the NFL.
