Jay-Z is making a splash in the sports arena!
Jay-Z’s Roc Nation Sports has teamed with CAA Sports to create Roc Nation Sports and they have already signed Robinson Cano and Skylar Diggins for starters. Now, New York Jets rookie quarterback, Geno Smith, has joined the roster, it was announced on NFL.com.
“I think it’s just his agency,” Smith said, according to the New York Daily News. “When you talk about being in New York from a standpoint of what they can do in the city, the connections that they have, I think it’s a good move. My mother and my family were comfortable with it. I’m comfortable with it.”
Smith, upon dropping to the second round in the recent NFL draft, quickly dismissed his agency, Select Sports, on the belief that he should have been the top pick of the draft.
