Days after superhuman Penn State running back Saquon Barkley announced that he’ll be entering the 2018 NFL draft, the 20-year-old shared that he has signed with Jay-Z’s Roc Nation Sports.
Barkley wrote on Instagram, along with a photo of himself with Jay-Z and another of him with his new agent Kim Miale.
Barkley had a meeting with Jay-Z at his home in Los Angeles. Afterwards, the RB said.
Many noticed that Jay-Z chose to go without shoes for the photo in the rapper’s backyard and joked about it, but I wouldn’t wear shoes in my own home either if I were him (even in the backyard — team no shoes).
Barkley also said that he chose Roc Nation because they were most focused on him, whereas other agencies are attempting to focus on 30 or 40 players.
In case you missed it, here’s the letter Barkley wrote to Penn State Nation as he announced that he’ll be leaving a year early to enter the draft.
