Agents often represent any talent. Could be broadcasting, coaching, playing, acting, etc.

Because he’s still under contracts as a game day host and sports analyst for Disney?

You don’t see all the commercials he’s in? You think Jimmy just strictly does contract negotiations?

He retired from coaching not working. Who do you think negotiated his contract with ESPN?

So Sexton represents him for his TV contract as well? Interesting.


What exactly do you find interesting about it?

You may want to get yourself an agent to manage your questions on the internet.

For some reason, I just assumed Sexton was a coaches/players agent only.

Don’t know why.

Sexton owns all of their souls. None are going anywhere.

Sexton represents him in contracts for work (Disney/ESPN), product endorsements (Aflac, etc.), appearance fees, speaking engagements...everything basically. As some have said, that's what agents do.
