Black football agents face another hurdle: Convincing White players to sign with them.
History was made last year when 17 of the 32 first-round draft picks were represented by Black agents. But that progress comes with an asterisk, Black agents say: Most still don’t have a single White client on their rosters. https://t.co/AvGEnpc4Wo
