    Super nice to see. If he works off the field like this, you know he's a super hard worker on the field.

    I didn't realize he wanted retail experience...

    As someone who has worked in retail in high school and college, I truly do not know why anyone would want the experience, especially when they're already set to make millions.

    He's a lot smarter than most players in the league. He negotiated his rookie contract without an agent and saved himself around $250k.

    I don't get why anyone has a agent really, I mean the markets set, and if your better than everyone you get paid more. agents are for sissyboys who cant say no

    this especially applies to rookie contracts who are pretty much set

    He wants to run his own store one day. Smart move to get experience. So many get into business with none and end up going under.

    No rookie needs an agent, except to front them money to live before they sign they're predetermined contract

    and yes retail is the worst thing ever, I hated working retail
