NFL Agents Discuss Biggest Challenges of Being Black or a Woman as an Agent

Two NFL agents detailed the challenges they face, the first as a woman and the second as a Black person, in the current landscape during a survey by The Athletic's Ben Standig.

"My answer is going to be different as a woman, but the biggest challenge as an agent is balancing family," one agent said to Standig. "Being a top agent, having a lot of players and wanting to also be a good wife, and maybe a potential mom one day, that’s the hard thing for me."

Another agent explained how they believe their race has impacted their career.
